Changes Between Versions 4 And 5 - Adobe FRAMEMAKER 6.0 Manual

Graphic object statements
If the Overprint statement is not present in a graphic object, the overprint setting for the object's color is
assumed.
ObTint applies a tint to whatever color is assigned to the object. If the object's color already has a tint, the
two tint values are added together.
Structured element definition statements
EDAttrHidden is a new statement in the EDAttrDef that specifies whether an attribute is hidden or not.
FStretch and FStretchChange are new statements added to the FmtChangeList to specify how much to
stretch or compress the characters in an element.

Paragraph statements
In version 5, paragraphs can span all text columns and side heads or span columns only. As a result of this
change, the PgfPlacementStyle statement now supports the additional keyword StraddleNormalOnly,
which indicates that the paragraph spans text columns but not side heads.
For supporting the capability to create PDF bookmarks from paragraph tags, the new PgfAcrobatLevel
statement has been added. This statement specifies the paragraph's level in an outline of bookmarks.
For more information about the MIF syntax for paragraphs, see "Pgf statement" on page 73.
