FrameMaker

When I perform a check in FrameMaker 2019 (OS: Windows 10 Pro) with the 'Acrolinx' app and then move the mouse over the elements (green rectangle,FM_start_visible.png), corresponding information is displayed (see FM_start_visible.png). As soon as I remove or dock this app from the other Pods, the previously mentioned text boxes are no longer displayed (see . Only closing and restarting FrameMaker helps (FM_undocked_not_visible). What must be done so that docking and undocking the app does not lead to this error behavior?Thank you!

We are using structured FrameMaker 14.0.2 on Windows 10 Enterprise (10.0.17134).  We recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and starting receiving "Internal Error: 14024, 72797540, 73072000, 73022110" (in the FrameLog files) when opening documents, and sporadically 1 to 3 times an hour.  When the error occurs, FrameMaker closes (with no warning) and there are no recover files created.  The error is occuring in all our documents, on multiple machines and for all 4 users.    Our corporate policy requires us to work on a network.  As a test, we worked on a local drive for 7 days (in three different documents).  We did not receive the error during the 7 day period.  We were able to work with the same version of FrameMaker and Windows 7 on the network with no issues.  We cannot revert back to Windows 7.  Has anyone else received this error?  Any specific ideas on a solution (besides not working on n

Hello FM community,FM2019I've posted recently regarding x-refs working between books. I've been able to get this to work with help of many on this forum. Now, with the same 25 book project (which up to now has only been requested in PDF output), I am being asked to create a Responsive HTML5 view of all 25 books. With cross-references intact. In FM, if I File -> Publish first one book, then another (which contains x-refs to the first book), it does not work. The link does nothing. I'm guessing it simply cannot be done. But I'm wondering if anyone out there can suggest anything. Perhaps Robohelp is a better source program. I may end up combining the 25 books into a single book simply to be able to produce a single Responsive HTML5 system. Any comments are most appreciated. Thanks. 

While creating TOC some sub level heading coming on "BOLD". i need that headings in regular. if i do manually that times its changes to regular, if i update the book again it comes "BOLD".  i checked the paragraph designer also for this level heading it shows regular font only. if any one knows answer please tell me. thanks in advance 

Every time I close FM 2019, it crashes. I can open it with no document open, then close it, and it crashes. I just installed this a few weeks ago. It has done this every single time since install. It is already updated to the latest version. 

Hi everyone; I want to know if their is a solution to this framemaker problem. It freezes and show scrambled symbols.     [Moving from generic Start/Help forum to the specific Program forum... Mod][To find a forum for your program please start at https://community.adobe.com/]

I want to copy past code example made in C++ into Framemaker but when I do it, whatever the way used (importing from word, special paste, ...) the color code once copied in Framemaker is not respected compare to the source code and then it makes no sense anymore. someone has an idea as I tried all what I know?

Hi, FM2019 update 3, Windows 10. Can anyone tell me why this seemingly simple script just hangs? function closeAllFiles() { var doc = app.FirstOpenDoc; while(doc.ObjectValid()) { doc.Close(Constants.FF_CLOSE_MODIFIED); doc = app.FirstOpenDoc; } }  When I watch it in the debugger, app.Close() seems to succeed, but app.FirstOpenDoc continues to get new document objects. I don't know where they are coming from. I thought maybe it was the tabbed welcome screen regenerating each time, but the problem persisted when I turned it off. Russ

I have just upgraded my document to FM19. The document has several hundreds of .png images. They look fine in the pdf output, but the HTML and HTML Help output contain shrunk images.For example one image goes from 882 x 623 pixels, to 522 x 377 pixels. How can I keep the original size?Also, in the HTML and HTML Help output, the images are centered instead of left aligned. In the FM document they are set to Offset 0 from Top, and Offset 0 from Left.

While updating TOC, Book error report shows color definition error, till now i don't have any issue of this error but in future it may affect the quality of out put ????Note: i am using unstructured documents.

HiI'm trying to create a table having the used symbols in one column and explanations in another column. When I add an image to a cell it is added in original size and the table is updated according to the size. I found info telling that there should be an option how to make the image to scale automatically to the size of cell. You should add "AutoScaleImageInTableCell=On" to maker.ini file. Well, I did this but it didn't work. I updated my Framemaker 2019 earlier today so the update related to this should be available. Any idea, what is wrong?

I given all the datas to reference then also some time im getting some errors in TOC. see the below image here rest of topic i am getting proper dotted line but here i am doing manually by pressing the tab then only im getting dotted lines. if any one knows solution please tell me .

All of a sudden my FrameMaker will not start and gives me error (0xc0000604). Any ideas.

While updating existing toc i am getting ? at the middle of each line. how to solve this error???

In my FM document each chapter starts with "Chapter" followed by its number, and on the next row the chapter title comes, e.g.:Chapter 1Introduction This is something I keep when generating pdf documents. When it comes to html/html help etc, chapter numbers make no sense, so I skip the "Chapter #" part. Currently I use a conditional text setting "ifPDF", which I manually switch show/hide depending on target format. Can this be done automatically? So that I can generate to all formats at once. (Also, I wouldn't have to worry about having wrong show/hide settings.)

I want to be able to set the text that appears in the title tab for PDFs when they open, and have this text be different to the filename.How do you do this?Ideally I want a way to populate this field based on the bookmap file I start from, second best would be from imported variables. I'm just not sure what to set (in Word the Title property controls it, but manually setting File info > Title, then doing save as PDF from an fm file didn't work, so I'm confused), and how to make that apply to the final PDF...Help appreciated Kat

I write technical manuals with Framaker 2019 and I face an issue. Inside a manual I have to enter programming code examples. To highlight them from the rest of the standard text, I put a grey background and to so I simply copy the code inside a on cell table to put a grey background. However, I now have long examples, longer than one A4 page, and with framemaker it is not possible to split one cell table over more than one page (as MS Word does it). How can I then still manage this grey background area over several pages?Best regards

FrameMaker & Extendscript newbie here. Hope I get the terminology close. I am supporting a documenter that wants to remove "everything" related to all character formats, tags, etc.. For instance, in the included image, he wants the to remove the "Bold" tag and format from the document. Can anyone help.  

Hello FM community,Environment: I'm using FM2019 unstructured creating multiple (25) books for PDF only output. I posted a few weeks ago about a 25 book project that needs be heavily cross-referenced. With help from this community, I was able to start my project. I am methodically going thru all the books, and just finished #7 (of 25).This morning, I just noticed that many of my cross references are pointing to the wrong place. I've recreated these x-refs, confirmed that are correct, and it still seems to happen.Has anyone ever experienced x-refs that go to the wrong place? I know that when creating the book PDF both books being connected need to be open. I'm doing this. I'm wondering if perhaps:Perhaps I need to have all book FM files open? Up to now, I simply open the book the reference is going to, but not the actual fm file within that book. But then why do some x-refs work, and not others?Very perplexing. Any comments are appreciated. 

A contractor sent in some FM files that I cannot open. He worked on them in a trial version of FM 2019. I only have FM 2017. Is there an easy way to convert the FM 2019 files to FM 2017?

I have Adobe FrameMaker 10 installed in an old computer. We just recently bought a new computer and I would like to know how can I uninstall from the old computer and Install it to the new one. Appart of that, I have the serial number of the FrameMaker 10. The package comes with a CD installation process (new computer does not have CD anymore) which I cannot use with the new one.Adobe support could you help me with that? Thank you! 

I have just installed FM19 on Windows 10. I have an old FM document coming from Windows XP.When I open any of the book's all fm files I get the message:"Document named xyz.fm has catalog definitions that use unavaliable fonts. Formatting and printing are not affected because these catalog definitions are not currently used in the document. OK to continue?"This happens every time I open a fm file, even if the same fm file has been opened several times before.(Probably Arial Black something.)How can I get rid of this problem? I have hundreds of fm files, so it would be great if I could avoid editing each file's catalog definition.

Hi forumers - my first post here!I've just fired up Fm 2017 and am a complete novice.I understand the DITA concept but cannot grasp how DITA topics are "injected" into maps or books with master pages and reference pages etc. In short - how do I assemble topics into an illustrated document with a fixed style.Are there any books I could look at?Thanks in advanceNKB69

In FrameMaker 17, this is the message I'm getting when I try to save a book or document as a pdf: FrameMaker could not find Adobe PDF printer instance, which must be installed to execute Save as PDF command..... Please Help! I need this functionality for the links... I've already uninstalled/reinstalled a few times.... Thanks!

Hi, helpful people! I'm hoping this is an easy question to answer. It seems simple enough, but I haven't been able to find anything in the available resources. I have a book that consists of a dozen or so chapters of 10-12 pages each, giving me a book of approximately 140 pages. The book applies for multiple different products, where I use conditional text for each product. So the total page count is unique for each product's version of the book. The pages are numbering correctly throughout, but I want to have the page number in the footer read as "Page [page number] of [total pages in book]" -- for example, "Page 47 of 140." I know that the variable "$curpagenum" will give me the current page number, but is there a variable for "total pages in book"? If not, how would I create one? Would I need to make it a user variable that I update each time I create a new version of the book? Thanks, and apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere.
