FrameMaker

New corporate font Inter – always looks a bit fuzzy when output to .pdfHad to tweak a .pdf page with Illustrator this morning, because of problems with starting FrameMaker. I selected a character to delete, and noticed I had to do this twice. Closer examination shows the glyph has been rendered as two Illustrator elements: an outlined glyph and a filled glyph. (the stroke/fill indicators switch)What's going on here?

Good day everyone. My company recently updated to FM2019 from FM11. So far things are going quite well. But we have found one annoying issue.I have a document that has a paragraph with a table anchored to it. I want the text to be conditional but not the table. But when I select the text, it includes the table. I turn off the conditonal text for the table, but when I hide the original text, the table still hides along with the text it is anchored to. But I want the table to still show. Is there anyway to turn off the automatic text and table "linking" that is going on?

Is there any way to turn off horizontal orange and blue scrolling messages from Adobe that appear on the Welcome page?  

I am probably overlooking something really obvious here, but I can not make this work:I have a page layout with sidehead.I put a headline, which has been set to Across all columns and sidehead (The one saying "Tequila 30-30")I insert an anchored frame in the headline which has been set to "Run into Paragraph"Now I would like to set the anchored frames Run Around Properties to "Don't Run Around". But I get a non sensical error message (Shown above). I want the body text to flow up under the headline. But I can not make that work. But why not, actually?...

Hi, I have started working on the files that a former technical writer was using. He was using FM15,  but I am using 19. The problem is, First - when I am trying to generate the HTML 5, all the paragraph styles are showing "Auto Mapping failed". The default fonts (New Roman) are reflecting in online output instead of the fonts defined as per the branding guidelines. Whereas, in PDF, everything is generated as per the defined and pre-saved template. Any solution to that?   Second - All the images that were tagged with conditional texting for "Only Print" rule have all got removed because of some unknown reason. What can be the best option to tag all images back to the same conditioning tagging which was applied in the source for previous releases.   Basically as a whole - I want to generate the same two outputs from single soure in PDf and HTML 5 without changing anything (Style, template, css..etc)   Can anyone help me to get rid of these issues?

We are publishing a 1200-page book developed using Framemaker 2020 into PDF with Tagged PDF enabled and it gets stuck as post-publishing process and never completes PDF publishing. Note that we haven't encountered this when we were using Framemaker 2015. Also we just upgraded from Framemaker 2015 to 2020; our Acrobat is also the latest version (Acrobat Pro DC). The following are the specs of the machine where Framemaker is running:Windows 10 EnterpriseIntel Core i7 6600U @2.60GHzPhysical memory: 16GBVirtual memory: 20.5GBNote also that i was able to publish a non-Tagged PDF version but it took over 10mins to do it.

Hi,I am using the latest updates of FrameMaker and Acrobat DC on Win10.I am using the Open Sans font set, downloaded from Google.When I generate my PDF I am getting garbled font. In the PDF it is still the correct font but the stretch is all messed up.I have copied this text in from notepad, pasted as text, pasted as unicode text, and even retyped the text manually in FrameMaker. And I have done publish as PDF and File Save as PDF. The exact same characters come out mangled. It is spotty throughout the document and only happening in Body text.I can't to print to postscript because since the latest update of Frame, distill to PDF from PS gets hung on the last page. 

In FM 2019, I used the Publish feature to output to html5 Help, issue, the glossary terms are underlined blue and look exactly like the cross reference links. Is there a way to control the appearance of glossary terms in the output? Is the set up for glossary terms in a css file? Thanks for any help you may provide. -William

Hello, I am working through my first extend script. FrameMaker 12 Windows 10Given a specified path (say "C:\MyFiles\FM_Format") containing a list of *.fm files which belong to a frame maker book, I want to save a *.mif copy of these files into a different folder (C:\MyFiles\MIF_Format). I've figured out how to iterate over an open book, open each file and how to save the file as an mif file.What remains for me to do is  1. Determine if the MIF_Format exists.   2. If it does not then create it.  3. Otherwise, clear all the files in that folder (delete them).  I have seen another post indicating that I could write a batch file to perform these three tasks and then I could invoke this batch file from within the script, which is great. I was just curious to know if there were native functions that could perform the same? Thanks for any feedback.Egan.

This has happened to me many times: I open a document from a previosu version of FM (version 11) and I save the file as FM 2020. When I go to reopen the document, it gives me the error message:  Although this appears to be a framemaker document, it can't be opened with this release of the product. This is a serious bug! Please fix as soon as possible!

Friends, Romans, Countrymen, please enlighten me.While I can make links from text (or link table) to the object parts or views, the opposite does not work:When clicking on a part I expect to jump to the corresponding named destination.An explicit gotolink command works as expected  (see Manual test in the attached files).However, the procedure as described under "Link from part to text" does not provide the desired result. BTW this procedure is the same as described in Help or elsewhere.In the files you see Named destinations FLengineSpinner and fl_engine_propeller. After creating the pdf for the first time I noticed that named destination eliminate the underscore, hence I left it out for the one item for test - but that did not help either.The named destinations in pdf are not the same as you work with in FM, they have a 'prefix' Mn.newlink.fm_link_name (with n being the file number within a book). But these 'expanded' destinations are not valid in the hypertext command

HiDoes anybody know how to delete this line? I can't access it via the Body, Master, or Reference Page. Any thoughts?  Here's the offending line (which is outside of the frame, as shown below).

The publishing system we've been using for years at my work recently changed. Previously, when you clicked a link/cross-reference for a PDF, the link destination would open up to a full page fitting in the window. With a recent update, links will open up with the location of the cross-reference marker being at the top of the page. Is there a way to fix this globally in Framemaker?

My translator sent mif files to me with a Russian translation of English text I sent to him. He uses either FM 2017 or 19t and I have FM 2019 32-bit. The font he is sending is in the expected Verdana font with the language set to Russian. However, I don't see the Russian characters, rather a set of symbols. When I try to change the language to a different language, including English, the same set of symbols appear. Is there a solution to this issue?

when i go to print my document to check for picture page placement, its bringing up this dialog asking about mini TOC. I do not want this document associated with a mini table of contents and i am not sure why this is appearing. When i go to search inquiry on the top of framemaker. i dont know a mini TOC to delete. is this document tied to a book somehow. i am new to framemaker and having alot of issues. thank you

I'm playing around with regular expressions (for the first time; yes, I'm late to the game) in FM2019, and I'd like to create a library of commonly useful regex search/replace strings for my colleagues to use. To make it convenient, I'd thought of putting a selection of these items on a reference page in our basic chapter template, so it would always be just View>Reference Pages away, or perhaps including a separate regex list as part of our book template... but I'd like to make it even more accessible: Is there any way to make saved searches accessible directly in the Find/Change dialogue? I know Find/Change saves a history of recent strings as a drop-down list in both the Find and Change fields; is there any way to "seed" those lists with predetermined strings (or some other way I haven't thought of to save searches)? This is a nice-to-have, rather than urgent, need... but it sure would be nice to have. Any insights would be, by me, greatly appreciated!

My group's work (using TCS2019) frequently involves incorporating PDFs from other sources (e.g., engineering documents and outputs from our pricing system) by importing them into frames in our FrameMaker books. Generally this works well, retaining the copyability and searchability of the embedded documents in our final PDF output... but recently I've discovered that documents from one source are not searchable or copyable in our final output, even though the PDFs I'm incorporating are searchable and copyable in their own right. My preliminary read is that it's some artifact of how the providing group is generating their PDFs... but before I go asking them to change their process, I was wondering if anyone could think of something I might be able to do on my end to correct this? Something in the settings or properties of the input files that might be relevant, for instance. FWIW, we use "Print Selected Files..." rather than Publish to make our PDFs, because there are some util

Hi, I think I have a very basic question, but as usual I can't find an answer in my Framemaker books or online. I'm starting to think I'm am idiot. But this group always comes through for me, so here goes. I am trying to design a simple header. It has four elements:A logo on the left side (small image file)A logo on the right side (small image file)Text in the middle (specifically, two lines: the document type in 18pt font, and then the title of the documen in 12 pt. font)A line underneath it all All total, we're looking at about in inch of material in height, stretching across 6.5" near the top of the page. If I just put the images on the right and left side and then add the text, the images are partially hidden. If I try to put them in a table, I can't figure out how to start the table at the insertion point, and I end up with a big space above it, which pushes the logo down too far. I know this has to be a lot easier than I'm making it. Please help. I have been w

In my FM19 project I have one book file and 15 FM files, one for each chapter. Each one having a chapter title,  heading 1, heading 2 etc.When I generate responsive html 5 output, I get the toc/search/etc to the left, and the main contents to the right, with one html page for each chapter. Is it possible to get all the chapters together in one single html page? (Just like the pdf file.)

I'm new to structured framemaker (v15) and am working in a rather large dita map. I'm going in and out of topics and prefer to work with the element tags visible. Every time I open a new topic I have to go back to the View > Element Boundaries (as tags) setting. But with 150+ topics this is getting very tiresome. Is there any way to configure this in options or settings? Maybe in one of the ini files? Help!
