FrameMaker

Hopefully this is simple, but I haven't found anything on doing this. I just want to copy rows from one FrameMaker table to another FrameMaker table, but retain the formatting (shading, ruling, row and column height and width) of the table to which the rows are being copied. When I use Copy and Paste, it copies the formatting of the table the rows are being copied from.

I found that Dynamic Content Filtering no longer works when I try to publish in HTML5 in Version: 16.0.1.817 I created a simple DITA map to demontrate this. <map><title>MAP TITLE</title><topicref href="conceptA.xml" type="concept" product="A"><topicmeta><navtitle>Concept A</navtitle></topicmeta></topicref><topicref href="conceptB.xml" type="concept" product="B"><topicmeta><navtitle>Concept B</navtitle></topicmeta></topicref><topicref href="conceptC.xml" type="concept" product="A B"><topicmeta><navtitle>Concept C</navtitle></topicmeta></topicref></map> When I publish, no filter option is appearing.

Hi, I have publish file FM into HTML5Is it possible to import HTML5 after revise contents update into FM file. Thank you,Charl.s

We have a framemaker project with several books and we use Git to store the .fm files. We have a situation where version 1 is already released and I have started working on version 2 and made a bunch of changes. version 2 is not yet ready to be released though. In this state, the clients have asked for a bunch of changes to version 1. I have a copy of version 1 and so I can make those changes. However, without having to manually redo those in version 2, is it possible to merge the 2 versions? Since framemaker files are binary files, I guess I cannot.. Is that right?

We use the same border for each image we add into our documentation. Is there a way to set a border to default so we don't have to manually apply it to each image?

Hello,I am working with FrameMaker 11.0.2.384.I am having trouble when importing a .cgm and .svg file from IsoDraw to FrameMaker. I have followed the steps in this post (https://community.adobe.com/t5/framemaker/why-are-the-vector-lines-from-the-cgm-images-in-fm11-document-exporting-to-pdf-very-jagged/td-p/10566204?page=1) but the error is not solved. I have checkd maker.ini file and everything looks correct.I can succesfully import .jpg, .png.  

This is a newbie question. My Framemaker version is 2020. Whenever I insert a page break at the end of my pages the next page always starts with an empty line. When I try deleting that empty line by backspacing then the page break gets removed and the next section gets merged into the former page. I did some research in the community and my impression was that I needed to let zero "Widow/Orphan Lines" to be created for pagination. The strange thing is that whenever I enter "0" into this box and press Enter (or update my style) then the value does automatically change to "1" and all of my page breaks get invalidated and removed. I also select "Remove Overrides" when Framemaker warns me about some paragraphs using format overrides during the paragraph style update process. I'm not breaking the pages at tables or graphics. I'm simply ending sections or sub-sections and continuing to another section or sub-section on the next page. I always end these sections/sub-sections in the "Body" par

It was a great first impression for us when we upgraded from FM11 to FM2019.3... 😆Luckily it's only the welcomescreen thing, so it's harmless, but does anyone know what might cause it?

Hi Community,Does anybody know how to get (read) data from excel with ExtandScript? Thanks.

I am using FrameMkaer 2019 and DITA. In some cases, I need to set the start of value of the ordered list to a different value than 1. How can I do that?

I had Mif2Go working with FrameMaker 2017 to create PDF files. I upgraded to FrameMaker 2020 and the process is broken. Does anyone know how to get FrameMaker 2020 to work with Mif2Go after an upgrade? I use the following path to try to set up Mif2Go (entered in a command window run as Administrator): "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe FrameMaker 2020\FrameMaker.exe" -progid:FrameMaker.M2G -auto This launches FM2020. Continuing in the same command window, when I try to convert a file, the following error message displays: runfm Ver. 4.0, Build 005This ID is not registered for FrameMaker: FrameMaker.M2GYou must first set up FrameMaker with -progid:FrameMaker.M2G If I instead try to convert a file using a .bat file, a command window opens for a couple of seconds, then disappears, with no output or message.I see info about the registry keys in the Mif2Go help file, but cannot figure out how to fix it.Thanks. 

A naïve question, I suspect, but on the one hand we have FrameMaker with a "save as XML" option, on the other hand we have InDesign with an "Import XML" option. Are these two visions of XML on speaking terms?

Dear friends and experts,Since many years I create utilities with AutoHotKey (AHK) which send keystrokes to applications. This is very simple for all application but FM > 8.To just send to the current window the command is Send {ESC}id If I want to insert a longer text, this is first put into the paste buffer and then sent with ^vTo target a specific window the window is activated with reference to the window title: WinActivate, Adobe FrameMaker Send, {ESC}id ; Focus indocument This works until FM-8, but not with the later versions using the 'new interface'.Although AHK still regcognises a window title (Adobe FrameMaker), this can not be used. Also the statement WinActivate AHK_EXE FrameMaker.exe activates something, but it is not the main window. It turns out to activate the last opened sub-window, in my case the graphic toolbar.Then I try WinActivate ahk_class FrameFamily15.MdiFrame This has the same effect, although I see that the window

I'm marking a line which utilizes a specific figure paragraph style under a figure table by using an insertion point at the beginning of the line. The numbering format of this paragraph places a text formulated as "F:Fig. <n+>" in front of the line. Because of that, the insertion point starts after the numbering text in the line. Is there a way to include this numbering format on the source cross-reference text? I've manually named the marker in the correct format but I don't see any building block for the marker name in the building blocks list. I'm trying to form the text as "See Fig. 3 “Prohibited Signs” on page 7." instead of what I'm getting at the moment "See “Prohibited Signs” on page 7.". See the below screenshots. 

When I use the FrameMaker script, sometimes I receive the following error though there is no code at this line. But sometimes the script works perfectly fine. Not sure what is the issue. Script Error : Error Message: undefined is not an objectScript, Line# : C:\D\Scripts\script01.jsx, 5 #target framemaker //@include "./logging.jsxlib" var book = app.ActiveBook; var compType = comp.ComponentType; if(!book.ObjectValid()) { book = app.FirstOpenBook; } if(book.ObjectValid()) { app.ActiveBook = book; alert (comp.Name); var comp = book.FirstComponentInBook; var current_file = comp.Name.replace(/^.*[\\\/]/, ''); while(comp.ObjectValid()) { if(comp.ComponentType == Constants.FV_BK_FILE) { var doc = OpenFile(comp.Name); if(doc.ObjectValid()) { var doc = app.ActiveDoc; var flow = doc.MainFlowInDoc;

I could not open the FM file, it appears the error message " Internal Error 12004, 18675028, 18675322, 21605557". And also there generated a file named" FrameLog_xxxx.txt".  Thank you!

I've re-created some informational text+icon boxes in my document which were originally created on Indesign. I've used the method described in the following instruction which utilizes a 2 column table where the first cell is being used for the icon image and the second one is being used for the informational text. The first icon cell becomes wider when I insert more than one icon into it and of course, this causes the text cell column to become narrower. Adobe Framemaker Icons  Is there a way to straddle cells which are placed on different columns and rows? I've thought that maybe creating a 2x2 table with the above method and then straddling the text cells would solve my problem. Framemaker doesn't allow me to do this but maybe I couldn't find the trick to do it. If not then is there a similar feature in Framemaker to the text wrapping feature of Indesign? The informational text+icon box on Indesign  The same informational text+icon box on Framemaker

Hello Adobe Support,I have a person who is having  trouble with cross references in Adobe Framemaker 2019.  They have to insert and delete figures and tables, and it looks like it’s messing up the list of cross references, and links.  Also possibly impacting the Table of Contents, the List of Figures and the List of Tables.  Any idea what could be causing this? 

Hi, when I have an anchored frame wrapped in an <image> tag, automatic things happen like shrinkwrapping and the addition of attributes like "height" and "width". Can I turn this off? I'm seeing it in FM2020 but it's been going on for a while. Thanks.

Hello.I used below codes to set CMS login dialog and this codes are refered from 'fdkreference.pdf'. but the 'Local Folder' text box was not read-only and the folder browser button did not show up.Is there anyone who knows how to set read-only textbox and add button?Thanks. VoidT F_ApiInitialize(IntT initialization){F_StringsT *userFields = (F_StringsT*)F_Alloc(sizeof(F_StringsT), NO_DSE);userFields->len = 2;userFields->val = (StringT *)F_Alloc(sizeof(StringT) *userFields->len, NO_DSE);userFields->val[0] =F_ApiCopyString((ConStringT)"WorkSpace:");userFields->val[1] =F_ApiCopyString((ConStringT)"Local Folder:");F_ObjHandleT cmsId = F_ApiCMSRegister((ConStringT)"Custom CMS");F_ApiCMSConfigLoginUI(cmsId,userFields, False);F_Free(userFields);} 

I'm posting this in here only to learn if this is either the normal way of visualizing the guidelines for overlapping text boxes and anchored frames or if I'm making a mistake or if this is an actual error in Framemaker. When I define an anchored frame inside a text box which has the same width with the text box then Framemaker does show the guidelines of the text box and the anchored frame not exactly on top of each other but a little bit shifted from each other. I couldn't find a specific tool to align the left line of both the text box and the anchored frame so I did align them on each other visually and manually. I think that I've managed to align the left lines of both these elements but the right line of the anchored frame doesn't exactly match to the text box whereas their widths are defined exactly as the same value. 

How do I create a new document in FrameMaker using Extendscript without prompting the user? I'd like to duplicate the functionality of the user doing "File" -> "New..." -> "New Document", then selecting the "Portrait" button. I think I either need to figure out how to programatically locate the "Portrait" template file and pass that as the filename, or maybe there is a open parameter I can specify that says to use the Portrait template. Here is the code I have so far: var filename = undefined; var oParams = GetOpenDefaultParams(); var rParams = new PropVals(); oParams[GetPropIndex(oParams, Constants.FS_NewDoc )].propVal.ival = true; oParams[GetPropIndex(oParams, Constants.FS_ShowBrowser)].propVal.ival = false; var doc = Open(filename, oParams, rParams); if (doc.ObjectValid() == false) PrintPropVals(rParams); // PropVals // -------- // prop num = 1 String value = // prop num = 2 Integer value = 0 // prop num = 3 Unsigned Integer values are: /

Typing speed has slowed down so much in my document that I seriously consider simply typing in word and the copy past the text into FrameMaker. My documents have three to four pages with a couple of relatively small png files.What may be happening? Can it be helped somehow?running win10.
