FrameMaker

Some of my templates have a lot of paragraph styles. While I try to make the easy to access, it is sometimes useful to use a customised view on the paragraph catalog like this: The customised view seems to be document specific, though. Meaning, that the next document I open will not have the same customised list of paragraph styles. Much like View Options which are also document specific. Is there a way to export these customised palette settings from one document to another? I suppose they must reside somewhere in the document?...

Hallo zusammen.Wir haben folgendes Problem: Wenn wir eine ältere FrameMaker Datei umwandeln in MIF (2022), um es übersetzen zu lassen, kommt es im Übersetzungsprogramm so an:Die Ausgangsdatei sieht im FM so aus:Ich habe schon probiert alles in eine andere Schriftgröße oder Fett hin und zurück zu formatieren, das bringt nix.Wie kann man diese "unsichtbaren" Infos raus löschen, hat da jemand eine Idee?

Hallo zusammen. Ich habe ein ganz einfache Frage, denk ich mal.Mit welcher Tastenkombination mach man dieses Sonderzeichen?Es sorgt dafür, das ein Teil des Textes Link- und der andere Rechtbündig ist mit Punten in der Mitte.  Dankeschön!

Hello, I'm trying to create text in the paragraph designer with a background color. I'm utilizing the numbering properties and it would beS:\t<n=1>\tIt almost works, but the tabs don't have the colored background and spacing doesn't work since it isn't consistent with the size of the spacing. Looking for any other work arounds or suggestions. The goal is to have a colored box background with equal spacing for each number in the center of the background square.

Hello all We've been having this problem for a while now and sadly, this entry did not really help.We're using FrameMaker 17.0.4 on Windows 11 Enterprise. The regular text is in Univers Pro Next but there are a few Greek symbols. These used to be in the Symbol font but we've replaced them with Noto Serif. These don't display properly in the PDF which we export through the regular publish function, not via Distiller. The fonts are locally installed and the display in FrameMaker is correct. However, the PDF displays Noto Serif Light with a slight contour (0.0857mm says PitStop). If I "bolden" it with the Acrobat edit functionality and then "unbolden" it, the font looks correct. Even stranger: Noto Serif Bold is exported as Noto Serif Extra Condensed Bold in the PDF. They are not displayed at all if Extra Bold Condensed is not installed on the system. I could not find anything regarding this font in the maker.ini but I might've missed something. I'm pretty sure th

Hello, community,I am attempting to uninstall Adobe FrameMaker 2022 silently but can't bypass the Delete User Preferences pop-up. This is the lines have tried:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Desktop Common\HDBox\Uninstaller.exe" --uninstall=1 --sapCode=FM --productVersion=17.0.4 --productPlatform=win64 --productAdobeCode={FM-17.0.4-64-ADBEADBEADBEADBEADBEADB} --isNonCCProduct=true --productName="Adobe FrameMaker" --mode=3 –silent=1Set-up.exe --silent=1 --uninstall=1 --sapCode=FM --productPlatform=win64 --productAdobeCode={FM-15.0.5-64-ADBEADBEADBEADBEADBEADB} --deleteUserPreferences=true Can anybody advise on what I am doing wrong? Many thanks!

Greetings, I work in a structured FrameMaker template provided by a Swedish authority for a specific project. They provide their templates as *.mif files and we save them as *.fm and create the documents as needed. Works well. There is no structured application and one isn't needed, as there is no requirement for roundtripping in xml. However, the document needs to be translated and for that reason I need to update a couple of strings when the translations arrive, such as those that go before figure numbers ("Bild") and those that go before warnings ("Varning").  What is the process in FrameMaker to do this? I've never had a need to do it before, so have only a vague recollection of the EDD route etc. When I export the EDD from the document, I can easly find the strings that come into effect in different languages, (prefix rules with if/else statements) but how do changes in the EDD come into effect in the document? I assumed it had something to do with "Update EDD to Cu

Hi, I just wanted to check whether something is reported on the Adobe Tracker. However, I cannot search for any FrameMaker related bugs. I only get the symbol for "Loading Form". On the start page none of the bugs which I had created is listed. I tested this on my work PC (logged in) and on my mobile phone (not logged in). I also cannot report a bug for Adobe Tracker (TKR). Can anyone check this as well. https://tracker.adobe.com/#/search Does anyone know who we could contact? Best regards, Winfried

3. I suspect that the generated reference page does not have a Running H/F 1 or 2 in the associated Master Page. The LOT, LOF and AML all have the correct formatting after customizing the reference page. No idea where to include a frame to infuse the Running H/F variables. I made a few unsuccessful attempts, but don't want to disturb the documents structural integrity. This is probably rudimentry query for the crowd here.

Hi I  have  a document  which  I divided into two volumes.I want the   chapter numbers in the  second volume to follow the numbering from first voulme. First volume ends with Chapter 8.Volume two when I update it, it  starts automatically at Chapter two. How do I renumber it so it start at number 9. Many thanks

My group is having an issue updating references. We are able to get the update references box to show, but when we go to update all cross-references and click update, we get an internal error code 17054 and FrameMaker shuts down. The only way we are able to update cross-references is to close all files and update book. Does anyone have a solution or have you had this problem with this version of FrameMaker?

Hi all, I am working on a small project creating a structured document that I want to reuse in several ways. Mostly self-learning, but wondered if there is anyone in Perth WA who would be open to providing some consulting/trainining for DITA and Framemaker in Perth WA. Thanks in advance,

FrameMakers crop mark feature does not work. Offsetting the cropmarks will create bigger pages, rather than moving the marks. Are there scripted solutions for this? As of now, I shall have to do a very manual method of placing cropmark graphics on master pages. I reported this error years ago.    

I need to set the basline offset for all anchored frames to a certain amount.I thought I can do that with :frame.BaseLineOffset = -10; where frame is the the AFrame object  but it changes nothing, any help appreciated.It looks to me that "Distance above Baseline" is not the same as BaselineOffset stated in the object reference under AFrame.Here is the complete script  :var graphic = null;var frame = null;var doc = app.ActiveDoc;  if(doc.ObjectValid())   {    graphic = doc.FirstGraphicInDoc;     if(graphic.ObjectValid() )    {      while(graphic.ObjectValid() )      {        frame = graphic;        if(graphic.ObjectValid()&& graphic.constructor.name == "AFrame")        {       // align the the frame left change the anchor type to uin

I'm using a report template and think I've grown beyond its initial intentions. I like the style with the side heading bar as it works well for my technical documents and is much more interesting to the reader. The Mini TOC tip from Barb Binder's Generated Documents video proved to be a blessing as I used to create a stand alone TOC and force it up-front when updated. After a hiatus, I'm back with FM. I'm stuck with a couple points. I'll split the three queries into separate posts to keep things easier for the team here. 1. Unless quite complicated, how would one go about separating the title page and blank page into a separate file in my book, have the TitlePage paragraph tag pass-through to my Running H/F 1 in the main report/body file and generated files, plus have all my Reference and Master Pages edits exist in the new separate title file as that would then be the first non-generated file in the book--needed for the generated files?

Next question,2.  I have "Appendix" as a H1, and created two H2 Appendix paragraph tags, so in the TOC, they appear as Appendix A: {title}, Appendix B: {next title}, etc. This allows them to appear in the TOC nicely and makes appending these items easily. Challenge is for generated files, as the user created appendicies numericaly increment fine. For the LOT, LOF (for now are appended) and my Glossary (Thanks to the Community for tips, it looks great), the H2 Appendix does not pass through the paragraph numbering, despite setting it up in the book.  Main DocumentParagraph Styles Name --> Numbering FormatAppendix -- Title1 --> Z:Appendix <A=1>: Appendix -- Title1+ --> Z:Appendix <A+>:  In the generated files, I use the "Appendix -- Title1+" paragraph style as the first line in the LOT, LOF and AML (Glossary). Initially, the numbering format reset to "A=1" when adding the line, so I modified the component. Here is what I added

What is this green sawtooth line under some text? Can it be turned off? This is a received document.

Hi All hope your year has started well. I'm wondering is the re a way to change the selected (amber) word on the footer without changing the master page. Currently I have a master page for each of the words on the footer. 

I have script which does book 2 dita for 2 books. During second book it shows above error. but books are same, no problems with inputs ? does anybody know what does this problem mean ?

I'm experiencing very odd behaviour with auto numbering when it is used in a cross-reference. I have an Element (Scene) in Document A that has auto numbering. In Document B, I have a cross-reference to the Scene in Document A. Nothing unusual. I've done this many times before. In both documents, the auto numbering matches, e.g. Document A Scene 10, the cross-reference in Document B shows Scene 10. However, I'm having some odd behaviour suddenly. When I now cross-reference Scene 10 (in Document A) from Document B, the cross-reference in Document B shows Scene 13. When I double-click on the cross-reference and click on the Go to Source button, it correctly goes to Document A Scene 10. Sometimes the numbering is out by 1, other times it 's out by several numbers. Edit: Nevermind. I had the wrong tag for the Cross-Reference format 🤦‍

Hello, I'm trying to import an SVG file created in TimeGen (timing diagram software) to FM2022 (v17). When I import the file, FM inserts extra white space around some text, as you can see here (marked in yellow): When I open the SVG using a browser, the extra space is not there:  The extra space can be seen when I create a pdf of the FM file.  Interestingly, my colleagues, who have the exact same version of FM, do not have this issue when they import the same files.  Any ideas why this might be happening, please?  Thanks

I have 2 problems during generating html from FM:1. Biggest - When generating html5, characters in the language Greek, look like corrupted. That happens in only this language.html:FM: This happens in FrameMaker versions 2020 and 2022. In version 2019 the problem doesn't exist.My settings in .sts file look like: 2. Slash and hard space are displayed incorrectly in headings html's (also version 2020 and 2022)1. slashslash doesn't exist in headings.2. hard spaceSign __160 replaces hard space in headings html's. I think that is bug of software. In earlier version program, I don't had these problems.I am asking Adobe to intervene in this matter. Thanks.

Hello! I was trying to navigate through mapping cross-references in my Adobe FrameMaker document to appropriate HTML tags. I see that the cross-reference dialogue box does not let me change the Element Tag from "Unstructured" to an "<a>" tag. Any idea how I can accomplish that? Thanks!
