既存の表にタイプ列を追加することになりました。ただ、タイプ列の情報は、No.2～4のみ必要となります(添付参照ください)その他の行は「Data」「Type」をセルの結合をしなければなりません。行が1300行あるため一括でそれぞれの行の結合ができないか考えていますが良い方法を思いつきませんどなたか、良い方法がございましたら教えていただきたくよろしくお願いします

Ok, here's what I've done so far (in roughly the order I did it): 1 created an EDD.2 exported a DTD from the EDD.3 created a template with the proper page layout and imported all my element definitions into it.4 created a configuration file5 Under Structure >  Application Definitions > Edit Application definition, I created a structured application (SystemManual) by providing the paths to the DTD, template, and configuration file. I saved the changes to the structapps file. It is my understanding that I should now be able to do the following:1 open a blank .fm document2 select Structure > Set Structured Application > System Manual3 In my blank document, I think I should be able to use the master pages and elements defined in my template. However, the elements catalogue remains empty and my master pages have not updated. I know that I can import most of what I need from the template, but I'm specifically trying to get a grasp on the structapps file a

How can we prevent the content from overlapping with the 'i' icon? It's currently overriding the content. Please assist with this issue.

Here's our scenario:We typically produce our training documentation in PDF. Occasionally, we agree to provide a client with an MS Word version of the documentation so they can add client-/process-specific details for their internal use. In the later case, we produce the document to PDF as normal, then use Adobe Pro to convert it to MS Word. (There is a bit of tidy-up in the MS Word version to do, but let's ignore that for now).When we produce the documentation to PDF, we use a corporate (commercially bought) font (let's call it Font A). When we will be converting the PDF to MS Word, we currently have to go through and update all the paragraph styles in MS Word to use a common (free) font (let's call it Font B).We don't use DITA or XML. We don't want to go down the route of using Paragraph Styles in FM - we moved away from that because our writers would constantly change the properties on the Paragraph Styles to how 'they like things to look', instead of keeping with our corporate style

I´ve done some research and I am new to Adobe FM.As part of the transition from MS Word to Adobe FM I should be keeping what was set as the normal template of the company for our documentation. Let´s say that the header of the page has a 1 row three columns table where different info about the document and company logo apperars distributed in each cell. Footer has a similar structure with a disclaimer and a logo in a 1 row two column table.Page numbers appear behind that table in the footer. I am not even looking for an answer of how to exactly do it but, it is important for me to know form your experience if:- Is it possible? Did not find any similar procedure online. If yes....any clues on where to start to look at?Thank you in advance¡¡

Why after replacing a missing font (Helvetica -> Arial)  several paragraphs get whitespaces collapsed? As soon I type a space the justification return normal.  Is there a way to fix the formatting aberration using one command for the all frame file istead of going paragraph by paragraph?  I attached a video that shows the beahviour.  https://youtube.com/shorts/DsNaFFCDqQ0?feature=share  

I am working with a colleague on a project. I need to be able to use QR codes (which will be set in stone once they are created) to link to a specific section of an owner's manual. The challenging part is that the owner's manual is constantly being updated, so a static bookmark won't work. Is there a way for him to create a bookmark that will always point to the correct paragraph even after the document is updated with extra text (page numbers may change and things might move around)? 

In a book I'm making I have 4 nearly identical images (charts) that are on landscape-oriented pages. The rest of the document is portrait. All 4 charts are 1419 px  X 1052 px. In the DITA, each chart is in its own topic.The <fig> element has an output class that tells FrameMaker the landscape master page should be applied to it. This output class is referenced in reference page. Here is the DITA content of each topic:Here is the converted content. Every time, the first three images are the same size (7" x 5.25")) The last one is smaller.(6.5" by 4.8 ") I cannot finde the reason. Here are the last 2 images: the first, is   

Could someone help me on this,I am unable to add the line in the content in another document like they have shown in this manual! 

I just updated FrameMaker to 17.0.5.725. Suddenly, no more Robo ScreenCapture. Where did it go??

I have tried creating a LOFfrom scratch and updating an existing one, but no matter what I do, the figure number and page number do not display.

The 17.0.5 maker.ini contains the preference:   EnableStructuredCrossRef=OffI have tried removing this preference, leaving it as is, and changing Off to On. I did not notice a difference in my ability to created structured cross-references. Furthermore, the Go to Source button in the Cross-Reference dialog behaved the same way. Does this preference affect FM's behavior?       --Lynne

Hi, I'm setting up my first EDD. I'm trying to create a list element that allows the user to select attributes for bulleted or numbered formatting. I thought I had copied the Delveoper Guide pretty closely, but it's not working. Can someon explain what I'm doing wrong? Here's what I have in the EDD:Element (Container): List   General rule: List-item+   Attribute list      Name: List-type    Choice    Required      Choices: Bulleted, Numbered   Automatic insertions      Automatically insert child: List-item   Text format rules      In all contexts.         Basic properties            Indents               First indent: 0.1in               Left indent: 0.25in  &nb

Hi! I recently upgraded to FrameMaker 2022. When I try to publish a larger book into a pdf through Save As Pdf, the generated pdf is missing some of the images, while some of the images do appear normally. However, when I publish a pdf of any of the single fm components, the very same images appear just fine. When publishing any smaller books, all images appear just fine.The problematic book is around 147 pages long and has several images per most pages. The files were created with an older version of FrameMaker. The images DO appear if I use Print Book and Adobe PDF printer though.Is there some setting or something I could do to make all the images appear the other way as well?Hope  I could explain it clearly and thank you so much for help in advance!

I have a Parts Manual that has a "Table of Contents" heading on all pages for the online pdf manual which is stored online for dealer access. I would like this heading to disappear once a person prints the document. Is there a way to designate this header as a "non-print" by still visible, so I only have to create ONE manual. Many people find it confusing on the printed version, since it appears on all the pages, but has no function on the actual printed manual that gets mailed out. 

I do not know why this error in the tree structure. Can anyone help me out!! 

Hi, I inserted some images at the insertion point (Anchoring Position: At Insertion Point). This works fine when I create the .dita file, but after saving and then re-opening the .dita file, the Anchoring position is set to Below Current Line. Why does the Anchor Frame formatting changes upon saving the file? How do I prevent this from happening? Thank you for your help.Cheers,R

I have structured in a DITA bookmap that I need to convert to FrameMaker. The conversion has worked so far now when I make a change to my template located in my template Bookmap file (template.fm file in my handbook.book map) I don't see those template changes in the output. I have a table style called FormatAppendix in which I'm trying to change the Left table margin from 0.0 to 1.5". My process:1. select my table in the FM file. 2. make the change in the Table Designer.3. select all contents of the FM file and paste into my AppendixTpl.fm file4. save the file.5. Import the file into the other files in my template.book map. 6. save the .book map.7. then re-run the DITA-to-FM conversion. Then, when you look the the converted FM files, the 1.5" Table Margin change has not been applied. When you select the table, the table designer shows 0.0" in the Left Margin box. HOWEVER the template file still has the updated 1.5" left margin. Any ideas on what is happening h

I have a situation where I create an illustration in Solidworks Composer (verison 2023) and save it as a jpeg. I then open this file up in Adobe Illustrator (2024) and add callouts. The callouts look good in AI (see below). I then save the file as an AI file and as a SVG file. When I insert the svg file into my FrameMaker document (2020) some of the callouts are not pointing to the correct items. Somehow they get moved around (see below) I recently updated my Adobe Creative Suite about 2 weeks ago and that is when this all started to happen. If the callout is indicating a large item (like Right Door or Monitor), it isn't much of an issue because the line still hits the item I am calling out. But, when the callout is for smaller items (like Handle and Scanner above), the lines move too much to where they are not even touching the item in question.I don't know if this is a AI, FM issue or SW Composer issue. When I do callouts directly in SW Composer, save it, then open in AI to

Currently all my indexes display the full page numbers when there are more than 1 page associated with the indexed word/phrase. For example, Apples, 45, 60-63Berries, 102-105, 145-147Cherries, 288-289, 299-312 Is there a way to get Framemaker to abbreviate the page ranges so that the indexes look more like this?: Apples, 45, 60-3Berries, 102-5, 145-7Cherries, 288-9, 299-312 Currently the paragraph style used for all of these lines is Level1AIX which is defined in the Reference pages thusly: Level1AIXopenXmlElementId <$relfilename>:<$UniqueXmlElementId> <$RelativeXmlElementId>openObjectId <$relfilename>:<$ObjectType> <$ObjectId><$pagenum>

Hi - I have a specific question but I have to imagine others have had it happened. Currently working on FM2020. All software is managed by IT, so I cannot download any extensions/extras/or change my FM SW, just as a note. The issue: I work on big user guides (400+ pages) and include many images of our app and physical product in workflows. When software is updated, screens get updated. When designers make a change, design elements on the GUIs change. When I put updated GUIs/artworks/button graphics/whatever in my links folder where I store them, and then update the image in the book file, save, close, then reopen the next time I have work to do, Framemaker asks me to update the path for the image/element that is NO LONGER in the document. I delete these images/elements from the links folder. We have so many, and also translate into multiple language from our English source, it is not practical to hold onto not in use images. Has anyone encountered this? This might s

I have an issue with my structured document. Whenever I try to move an image to its correct position, after saving, the position changes. Let me illustrate. The house icon is now in the place where I want it to stay. However, after I save the document, this happens (next image).Position of the image moves? I've tried anchored frame settings (Anchoring position > at insertion point) and seemingly everything I know. Our company manual has a lot of these inside paragraph icons, so help would be much appreciated. 

How do I fix the resolution so that this displays correctly.   Seems to display correctly than immediately changes to look like this.We have played with the resolutions setting via the properties under the .exe but nothing workedthanks in advance.
