1  Control the document title effectively, and
display it in the title bar
A PDF document title is essential because it can be displayed
in the title bar instead of the file name, thus helping to identify
the PDF file. The title is also displayed in Acrobat's Search
Results list and when PDFs are listed in web searches.
In FrameMaker 7 or later, the document title can be set through
File > File Info, along with the Author, Subject and Keyword
fields (in FM6: PDF Setup, Document Info tab). However, FrameMaker's
DocInfo values are reset when importing formats from other documents
with the Document Properties category turned on so your settings
can easily be lost (except in FM7.1; support for the CopyFileInfoOnImport=
maker.ini entry, controlling this behavior, was added to FM7.2).
With TimeSavers 5 or later, the title can be automatically
populated from the top bookmark.
Setting a title is not enough. By default, Acrobat displays
the file name in the title bar. You can set the title to be displayed
in the title bar through Document Properties, Initial View (Window
Options group), but this has to be carried out in Acrobat for
each PDF (and repeated when the PDF is recreated). With TimeSavers,
you can set a default initial view setting of "Show document
title in title bar" for all PDFs being distilled (along
with other default initial viewing settings).
Note: In PDF Settings tab (TimeSavers 5), you can
also specify default values for Copyright Status, Notice text
& Info URL (the File Info dialog box in FrameMaker 7 or later
has similar fields, but they are not carried over to PDF).
Example
(PDF: 46K); zip file
(52K) includes source .fm file
TimeSavers settings used: Use top bookmark as document title,
Add spaces to title, Show document title in title bar
(PDF Settings tab); Collapse bookmarks to 2nd level
(Bmk Functions tab); Style bookmarks by level
(Bmk Style tab)
