There are no changes in FM 2019 settings (configuration), just using default FM 2019 settings.FM 2019 version 15.0.6.956 When opening DITA Topic template and typing text in Korean, I cannot type Korean text properly and, Korean texts are changed to question marks abruptly.  If you click the following link, you can see or download the video clip, which I recorded the happening.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Csfs67O2I06HePcBGzLmJyaVIcTlJxs-/view?usp=sharing  Please, help me.Thanks in advance.

In several topics I've defined some <indexterm> elements:<indexterm>LEV1 <indexterm>LEV2 <indexterm>LEV3</indexterm> </indexterm> </indexterm>After being published in ePub, the index looks something like this:LEV1 LEV1 LEV1 LEV1 LEV1 LEV2 LEV2 LEV2 LEV2 LEV2 LEV3a LEV3b …But it must be:LEV1 LEV2 LEV3a LEV3b … What's wrong?

Hi Community, According to Adobe FrameMaker Scripting Guide ( https://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/pdfs/framemaker_scripting.pdf ) the paramters of UpdateDITAReferences are docId, flag;The description of docId is not certain. I do not get errors when I use the Doc object in the place of docId, but I do not get external references updated as well. In order for this method to work for me (FM version: 15.0.4.751 ) the syntax was: UpdateDITAReferences(flag); I used the integer value of flag to get external references updated:oDoc.UpdateDITAReferences(0x02);

Greetings, We have spent a considerable amount of time, including calls to customer support, to try upgrading a subscription-based FM2019 to 2020, with no success. The last installation process returned the info that it was successful, but it's still FM2019. What is the standard procedure to upgrade a subsciption-based version of FM? Kind regards,Mats 

Dear friends,Even if this project may be to ambitious for my knowledge I’m at least one step further than what I presented Barb Binder in November.The script is intended for the unstructured interface. Any structure related find or replace stuff is left out.FMfindRepl v0.6 finds everything which I can handle (see the second page of the documentation (aka help file).The script does not yet replace anything. I see many challenges ahead. Just look at the famous comment by Russ Ward in https://forums.adobe.com/thread/895626: now, lets jimmy the text range in memory to place it directly.While the script reacts on the change of the active document (Notify function) it does not find in books or a selection.The help file currently displays the pdf “Developer-log”. Later it will open the according web-page.The RegEx support is rudimentary. It opens a web page.The script has only an English interface, even if you run it in a French FrameMaker. This will change towards version 1.0, because this w

What does FrameMaker use to create this table of contents for the responsive html5 output? 

When creating a book, I get an error message for one of the 14 files I am adding to the book. It reads: "Inconsistent Setting -- Print setting for color Black is inconsistent in Section 9 Program Center.fm  The book may not print correctly." Any ideas?

Is this specific to some versions of FM - Upgrade Adobe FrameMaker? Can you upgrade from any version of FM to the 2019 version? We have licenses for FM8 and we are looking to upgrade to a more recent version. Also, will FM8 documents be compatible with the new FM versions? Thank you!

I am trying to use keydef/conkeyref s to improve my re-use of content and reduce errors. I am applying it a similar fashion to what is described here. The published content and conkeyrefs are working well when I publish in PDF format but not in responsive HTML5.  For keywords both worked fine. The ditamap was as follows; <map xmlns:ditaarch="http://dita.oasis-open.org/architecture/2005/"><title>Test MAP</title><keydef keys="product_title"><!-- product_version = "1.5.20"--><topicmeta><keywords><keyword>RAPTOR- Quick Start Guide</keyword></keywords></topicmeta></keydef><keydef keys="product_version"><!-- product_version = "1.5.20"--><topicmeta><keywords><keyword>1.5.04</keyword></keywords></topicmeta></keydef><keydef keys="product_date"><!-- product_version = "1.5.20"--><topicmeta><keywords><keyword>Decem

Hi all(first time poster) On a FM document, i need Heading 1 autonumber start at 0.Created two paragraph style (assuing that is the best approach to do it) H1_Heading1 with autonumber H:<$chapnum>.<n+>  H1_Heading1_Begin with autonumber H:<$chapnum>.<n=0>  but when try to define the header to show on each page the current "Heading 1" with Running H/F (<$paranum[H1_Heading1]>) it only starts, has expected, on the Chapnum.1  there is any (simple) way to have the header working for the 0 also?  many thanks  

Hey, I'm really new to framemaker and hope somebody here can help me. I changed the prefixes from result and  note in my edd and saved the file. Then I imported the edd in my ChapterOutputTemplate by clicking data->import->element definitions (it also says import was successful). After I saved the template, I went back to my bookmap and tried to publish as pdf. I chose under settings the Dita Option: Save as a bookbecause I also need a TOC.Then I imported my ChapterOutputTemplate under Dita-Template, saved my settings and published my pdf. The published document showes the pharagraph changes (like font, size, color, etc.), which I made in the template but the changes from the edd are not shown. Prefixes are still "Result" and "Note". I tried a few different things but  nothing is working. I really hope somebody here can help me.Thanks in advance.

Dear All, I started using Framemaker on a Sun workstation in 1989, and used it for many years before taking a break.  I started using Emacs way back then, and it was great to have the emacs key bindings in Framemaker.  I recently purchased Frame 2019, and as far as I can tell those key bindings are no longer present.  Is there a way to invoke them in Framemaker 2019?   Some of the bindings I'm looking for are: ctrl-k   delete from cursor to end of linectrl-e   move cursor to end of linectrl-a   move cursor to start of linectrl-d   delete characterctrl-n   go to next linectrl-p   go to previous linectrl-s    find/search Any help greatly appreciated -Rob

I recently purchased from Adobe via ebay a brand new factory-sealed licensed copy of FrameMaker 12. I want to download the four update patches (12.0.1., 12.0.2, 12.0.3, 12.0.4; all are needed) from the Adobe Website at https://supportdownloads.adobe.com/product.jsp?product=22&platform=Windows. But when I click the download button for each of these patches, nothing happens. The buttons are dead. Do the buttons need fixing? Or, is there a workaround for downloading these four patches (zip files)?

I continue to have difficulties importing PDF comments.FrameMaker 9.0 p237Acrobat 9 Pro ExtendedI export a book to PDF, I make sure that "Save PDF for Review Only".I make some comments in Acrobat 9 Pro (also used Acrobat Reader 9)I try to import the comments back into the FrameMaker file and all textual comments are misplaced.I have some other books that don't import the comments at all and one that even hangs FM when importing comments.  I have not had this work successfully on any documents.  Is this feature complete?

In FM 2015 unstructured (version 13.0.0.33) When I go to save a file as a PDF using the Save as PDF function, the PDF settings window is being cut-off.  I can't scroll on the window nor can I expand it, and I need to change settings that are outside of the visible area.  Anyone know any fix for this?  Here is a screenshot of what I'm seeing.   

Dear friends,Back on stage I encounter a very strange problem. In the following short function I set up a DropDown list: KLD_F.FillDlgList = function(oList, asListItems) { // ============ /* Fill dialogue list from global array Arguments oList dialogue list to be filled from the array asListItems array with the list items Returns - Called by various call-back functions History 2020-11-10 tested with FMfindRepl */ var j, nItems; nItems = asListItems.length; oList.removeAll (); // clear the list for (j = 0; j < nItems; j++) { oList.add ("item", asListItems[j]); } } //--- end FillDlgList It is encountered very often during executing the script FMfindRepl. Now I found that after certain sequences of operations, namely:Find Cross-Reference (any) (2x)Find Cross-Reference of Format ... (2x)Find Cross-Reference (any) (2x)Find Cross-Reference of Format ... → ZoinggThe script halts for a whi

I am using FM2019. When I go to Publish-Dynamic Content Filter, I have nothing in the Tags and Expressions pane, despite having created tags and expressions. Here were my steps:- i created conditional tags and applied them to the appropriate document areasI created expressions but when i did Publish-Dynamic Content Filter, I am presented with a blank 'Available Tags' box. What am I doing wrong?Any advice will be greatly appreciated.Cheers,Bill  

There are two entries to new documents in FrameMaker 2020. The "Welcome Screen" and "Explore Standard Templates". I sometimes create templates and would like them to be easily accessible through the either the "Welcome Screen" or "Explore Standard Templates" or preferrably both. While I can figure out how to modify the HTML in the Welcome Screen it is quite bothersome to add links to, it and they are not dynamically updated. I am not able figure out how "Explore Standard Templates" work. It looks like its an exe file, but perhaps not? Question: Is there a way to make new directories with my own templates and have them dynamically added to the template selection process?

I would like to use a customized page numbering scheme. Each chapter has an abbreviation that it uses and I would like that to be part of the page number format. Example: Chapter 1 is "United States of America (USA)" I use a variable for the USA abbreviation called "Abbrev" and can use that same variable on the master page so that the page numbering system for that chapter will be USA-1, USA-2, etc. Is it possible to bring in that same numbering system into the TOC? Can the TOC reference page use a user-defined variable?

Hi there, I searched the forum but found only issues with FM7, FM10. Here is the input:Windows 10 x64FrameMaker 2019Bitdefender av installed on internal SSDExternal HDD running DropboxAll files and folders on Dropbox are fully accesible by me without restrictions.All files/projects are saved on external HDD where Dropbox is sync the files with server. I am using this solution for years. It worked just fine with FrameMaker10. It is working PERFECT with any Adobe application (InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop). It is working PERFECT with Office365. It simply does not work with FM2019. It is annoying to drag all files of a project to internal SSD, format the project and move it back to Dropbox when is done. Why I cannot save it directly to external HDD without any errors like FM10 did? I am the only one having access to this particular folder. But the error is received everytime I save a MIF files as FM. Or even when I am working on a FM file and try to save. All my
