Acrobat article threads [Hmmm corner in microtype.com]

[Shlomo Perets <shlomo2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Many FrameMaker documents & templates (including FM's sample files) specify 
the creation of Acrobat articles from text flows by default. The vast 
majority of PDF users do not know what is the Acrobat article feature and 
how to use it. As a result, it causes more troubles than benefits.

Recommendation: do not have article threads turned on (Format > Document > 
PDF Setup, Bookmarks tab) unless you specifically need articles in the PDF 
being produced. [And if you do use articles, specify "Thread by Column".]

See the "Hmmm..." corner at http://www.microtype.com (bottom of home page) 
for more information / example.
