Hi,The company I work for is considering upgrading to the 2019 version of FrameMaker. We would like to install it on a secure network with no internet connection.In the past, it was possible to activate FrameMaker without the internet, but according to the FAQ for FrameMaker 2019 this is no longer possible.Can someone confirm if that is correct?If FrameMaker 2019 can't be activated without the internet, what is the most recent version of FrameMaker that can?ThanksDaniel

My company purchased a Framemaker license for me and I received the link to download the application and so far I've run into two issues that have prevented me from completing the download and installation of the application:1) When I attempted to download the package using the Adobe link that was sent upon purchase, I think the company firewall intercepted the download and wouldn't allow me to install. One of the IT representatives was able to download the application in his computer and transfer the file to my computer.2) When I attempted to install the package on my company computer, I got a blank pop-up with 'undefined' appearing after awhile in the pop-up.3) I attempted to install the software on a computer outside the organization to see if the issue was caused by my company security settings, or if the file sent by Adobe is corrupt. When I attempted to install the software on the computer with no security issues that would prevent the install, I got an error message saying the p

I'm having the exact same issue with Framemaker and the way I see it, if Adobe cannot come up with a patch to allow their programs to work with Windows 10, they are going to lose a lot of business since everyone is being forced to switch to Windows 10...am I right?

Hi, Can anyone get me jsx coding to open bunch of files in Framemaker?

Had a few questions in regards to converting a DITA map to pdf with FrameMaker 2019.Trying to build custom templates with our corporate branding.On our technical publications the master footer would include the title of the book.How would you do this in DITA?Can drive down to structure/xml/DITA1.3 /app/technicalContent/template and change the master pages for the topic, concept, etc...but seems like I need to be a level above this. Like I need to set a global file for all pages that would feed the book information in the footer, perhaps by metadata or something. Not understanding this.When I use the PDF publish feature it spits out a cover page, the template which I modified with our company logo at structure/xml/DITA/outputTemplates. This is a great start, but how would I go about populating this bookTitle page with xml information, like the specific book we're working on, cover image, etc. It's like I had wanted to use the outputTemplate file as a master page that I write over the to

I am running unstructured FM 2017 in a Windows environment and am fully patched.My Adobe Distiller has stopped working and will no longer generate a PDF.I have tried Print to PDF, Save as PDF, and Save as TPS with no success.Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,i want to iterate all tables.. and process table contentshow to do it through script?pls help

My graphics looked fine in output before, but after adding rectangle hotspots for interactivity, the output graphics are noticably blurry.Are there any hidden settings that control this?The output options have been set to Default Format: (As Is), and JPG Quality 100.I copied the graphic so I have the same one with and without hotspots, and hotspots are definitely the cause.

How can I prevent this from happening?I exported an image from Adobe Illustrator to PNG.  Then I imported it by reference into Frame.  Then I saved it as PDF, then I printed it.On paper the image is printed about the size of postage stamp.  In FrameMaker, the image is 672 pt high...about the entire height of the page.

I installed TCS 2019 yesterday. Captivate, RoboHelp, Acrobat all launch successfully. However, FrameMaker fails to launch and I get a FrameMaker.exe - Application Error message stating "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000013). Click OK to close the application." Has anyone seen this before and found a solution?I'm running Windows 7 SP1 on an i7 laptop, 16 GB of RAM, 200+ GB of disk space available. I've checked Java to make sure I'm running JRE 8; I am. I have not removed TCS 2015 and don't want to until I know I can run the new version. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the FrameMaker component of TCS 2019 several times with no success.Thanks!

Since updating to FrameMaker 2019, I have had a problem with random chapter bookmarks being omitted when saving a .book file as a PDF.My workaround has been to remove the problem chapters from the .book file, save copies of a non-problem chapter using the filenames of each problem chapter, copy/paste their contents into the copies, then import the copies into the .book file.When I save the .book as a new PDF, all bookmarks are present. (Lower-level bookmarks have so far not had this issue.) These are files created in FrameMaker 2015. The problem did not occur until after the software update.Does anyone have a theory as to what is causing this?

Sometimes the graphics that we use in our documents suddenly disappear.In stead of data of the graphic:<Anchor><Image><graphic file="../Graphics/pic308.jpg" impsize="0.984in 0.865in"    impby="ref" sideways="0" impang="0.000" xoffset="0.000in"    yoffset="0.059in" position="below" align="acenter"    cropped="0" float="0" width="0.984in" height="0.984in"    angle="0.000" nsoffset="0.000in"/></Image></Anchor>the following appears:<Anchor><Image><graphic></graphic></Image></Anchor>So all references to the graphic are lost.Furthermore the reference to the StructApp at the start of the XML-file is changed from:<!DOCTYPE Document SYSTEM "file:///N:/Centrale%20Projecten/StructApp/Zeiss%20(VDL)/atg_EN.dtd" [in<!DOCTYPE Document SYSTEM "file:///N:/Centrale%20Projecten/StructApp/Zeiss%20(VDL)atg_EN.dtd" [Does anyone know what causes this issue and how to prevent thi

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem with conditional text in HTML5 output from (non-structured) FM 2017. I'm using conditional text quite effectively to produce PDFs (File > Save as PDF). The output is always based on the visible text in the editor, as I would expect. As I change visibility of conditional tags, the content changes correctly, and the output includes only what I can see. However, when I try the same approach to produce HTML (File > Publish > Responsive HTML5 > Generate Selected Output) using a configured STS file, all text from all conditional tags is always included. Obviously, this is not what I want. Adjusting the selected conditional tags and visibilities in the current book makes no difference. I tried this against the book file and the individual FM files. So, I did some investigation yesterday, and read this thread: FM12: Conditional text and Publish to Microsoft HTML Help This seemed to indicate that there was an issue with the STS file I am using.

Hi,how to get the applied PgfFmt and charFmt names of the selected text using script?

I have a Framemaker book that gives numerous Unresolved cross-reference error messages when I try to create a TOC.  The errors appear to be related to figure numbers where I inserted images.

I'm using Frame 2017 unstructured and have noticed tick marks (faint periods) in some of my table cells after converting to PDF. It turns out that those marks are green paragraph tags in FrameMaker. How can I get rid of green paragraph marks - turn them black?

Since yesterday I cannot generate pdf using "Save as PDF.."Iv'e tried different .fm an .book files. Individual .fm files work fine but saving book files as pdf FM crashes.While Distiller does run, it aborts after a few hundred pages and the only output is a large tps file.I tried troubleshooting the tps file according to Troubleshoot PostScript errors  but the PostScript error is  "%%[Error: ; OffendingCommand: ]%% , i.e. nothing to go on.Does anyone know why this can be happening? or how to use the find the problem in the tps file?Thanks!

Hi,how to get the font size of the text? the following code returns empty  var oProp = doc.GetTextPropVal( textRange.beg, Constants.FP_FontSize);  alert(oProp.propVal.sval);pls help

I am using Framemaker 19. I have two separate books and want to know if I can import a section of one book's file into a section of another book's file so that when the 1st document is changed it will update the other book through the update process. In other words, I want to pull a small table from a document file in book 1 and have it linked into a section of a document file in book 2. I know I can do it with source files, but I'm trying to keep from having to manage many numerous sources or having to update information in multiple locations when there are revisions.

framemaker 2015 doesn't start even after completely re installed and cleaned registry. still opened for 10 sec then closed
