FrameMaker

Hi All,I have an issue with launching FrameMaker from ESTK. On my work PC I can successfully run script both when FrameMaker is already running and when it is not started. In second case ESTK asks for launching FrameMaker and starts it.But on another machine - with the same configuration (Win8.1 64bit) - when launching fails with "Cannot launch target FrameMaker 2015". As I investigated it caused by trying to start not C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker2015\FrameMaker.exe which is correct, but C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker2015\FrameMaker.exe. I tried to find where this path is specified but neither registry not files search was successfull.How can I fix it?Thanks for help.

I am facing the following problem:I have a timer in my application that hits repeatedly after 2 seconds to get the active document name (if there is any).If the user selects some text (on mouse click down) of the active document from Adobe FM 2015 then the following API call returns 0 (which is wrong):F_ApiGetId(FV_SessionId, FV_SessionId, FP_ActiveDoc)Later, if user leaves the mouse button (mouse click up) then in the next hit of the timer the document name will be fetched.It seems that the Adobe FM 2015 cannot handle simultaneously both user input from the application and the API calls from my application.Why is this happening?

When I import my svg in to my anchored frame, I keep getting a solid black square.  Do I need to rescale my image?  I've never had this happen before.

I have just installed the latest version of FM and when I open my files, I cannot see my text cursor until I start to type. But if I move it, it disappears again. This happens in .fm and .xml files.

Is it possible to hide a document from Adobe FrameMaker 2015?

Last version of FrameMaker: 2015 (build 13.0.3.495)OS: Windows 10 Pro (upgraded from Windows 7)Our company uses a specific TrueType font. I never had problem to use it with all FrameMaker versions. Recently I have upgraded to Windows 10 and upgraded the Adobe Communication Suite to 2015 version with FrameMaker.Explanation of the problem: 1. If I open a document with this font, everything is fine,2. In this document, if I try to apply this font, the result is ? for each character,3. If I create a new document, the result is the same: only ?,4. On the old open document, if I copy a word with this font, everything is fine,5. If I go to the Windows\Fonts folder, and open this font, the displayed map is perfect,6. If I open Microsoft Word 2003, the font is perfectly applied.Who has an idea about this problem ?

When I try to get the name of a new document name an empty string is returned.Why this is happening? Is it possible to get the "Untitled1.fm" that I see in Adobe FM 2015 application?This is the FDK API call I use:F_ApiGetString(FV_SessionId, docId, FP_Name);

I am facing the following problem. I am doing in a while loop multiple finds and replaces. However, because there are many while the replacements happen the user can click on the document somewhere. When he/she does it then F_ApiFind returns with -1 and the while loop stops. Why this happens? How can I handle such a case?

Hi.I am facing a bizarre problem when I retrieve the open documents with the following code:for (F_ObjHandleT docId = F_ApiGetId(FV_SessionId, FV_SessionId, FP_FirstOpenDoc); docId; docId = F_ApiGetId(FV_SessionId, docId, FP_NextOpenDocInSession)){    StringT documentFilePath = F_ApiGetString(FV_SessionId, docId, FP_Name);    ....}If I paste from e.g. Microsoft Word any formatted text and paste it to a new document in FrameMaker when I try to get all open documents I get not only my new document but also a temporary document with filepath: C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Temp\FRS375F.fm.This file contains the same information that I have pasted in my new document and also does not exit physically.Can somebody please tell me why is this happening?

I am using Frame 2015 to publish large technical manuals. I have created a stand alone glossary of the acronyms and definitions used in the manual. I want to be able to publish this to responsive html and have the glossary show up in the glossary tab and not in the toc. I have been able to do this with the index, but cannot get the glossary to work.Can anyone help with this?Thank you!

Hello,at first, my english isn't that good - I'm sorry but I hope you will understand what I want to say.I have a big problem with the book function of FrameMaker. I want to creat a table of contents which is foldable. I have NO idea how to do that. I tried (felt) 900 different methods but nothing works. I found a lot of stuff about table of contents but no one explain in a few (easy) steps how to do that. Maybe I do something wrong in the TreeView ... I don't know - really.See, this is what I want:As you can see, you can click on "Garage Tasks" and there are more subjects. If you won't see these more subjects, you can click on Garage Tasks - again - and it will be hidden.This is what I want and I would be so thankfull if you could give me a short "how to do"-list, step by step.Thank you very much,Ray

How to get the title of a table with FDK ad C++?

I have the following code to handle tables:for (F_ObjHandleT tableId = F_ApiGetId(FV_SessionId, docId, FP_FirstTblInDoc); tableId; tableId = F_ApiGetId(docId, tableId, FP_NextTblInDoc)){  for (F_ObjHandleT rowId = F_ApiGetId(docId, tableId, FP_FirstRowInTbl); rowId; rowId = F_ApiGetId(docId, rowId, FP_NextRowInTbl))  {    for (F_ObjHandleT cellId = F_ApiGetId(docId, rowId, FP_FirstCellInRow); cellId; cellId = F_ApiGetId(docId, cellId, FP_NextCellInRow))    {       ...    }  }}How can I get only tables that exist in body pages. I want to filter these only..Please help.

Hi,Back in the Frame 8 days we had a combination of Windows shell scripting and FrameScript to detect updated .fm files in our Perforce versioning system, convert the new files to PDF, and upload them to Sharepoint for the outside world to consume.In 2016, is this still the right plan? I've started looking at ExtendScript, but it seems to exist purely within FrameMaker. Is this an accurate observation? Should we stick with FrameScript?Thanks,Boone

Guten Tag zusammen,eine Dokumentation die mithilfe von SDL Trados übersetzt werden soll, wird von mir per "speichern unter" ins MIF-Format konvertiert, Wenn ich meine Daten vom Übersetzen zurück erhalte, ändere ich lediglich die Extension von .mif auf .fm, damit das Buch die Dateien anhand des Namens wieder findet.Die Symbole im Buchfenster erscheinen jetzt aber blau und tragen ein "M" statt den Buchstaben "fm".1. Was hat sich verändert?2. Kann es sein, dass sich anschließend das Buch über die Funktion "Buch aktualisieren" nicht mehr aktualisieren lässt?3. Sind die MIF-Daten keine vollwertigen Framemaker-Dateien? Wenn ja, was fehlt?Wenn ich die MIF-Dateien mit "speichern unter" als Dokument12 (*fm) abspeichere klappt das mit dem Buch auch wieder. Aber bei 125 Dateien in einem Buch ist das mehr als umständlich.4. Existiert außer händischen Umspeicherns noch eine Möglichkeit die Buchaktualisierung zu "überreden" Ihren Dienst zu tun?Vielen Dank schon mal für eine Info zu einer, oder noch

How can 2 people using the same .sts file for the same book get different items in the HTML5 TOC?

Using FrameMaker 11... I'd like to make a short variable that simply includes the full year -- no month, no date (e.g., "2016").  It is for a copyright page in my documents, that I'd just as soon forget about.  I just want to ensure that the year on this page is current (and auto-updates, if necessary when I build the book).  I just had to re-PDF and re-release a document because of this (and our release process is anything but "speedy").

I just Installed FrameMaker 2015 (no errors), but when I open a FM 11 file, even after updating it to FM 2015 and importing new formats and element definitions, I receive the following error message in the FM console:maker: While reading menu customization file C:\Users\smayer.AVIDWW\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\13\WorkSpaces\Structured\WYSIWYGView\menus\menus_structured_authoring.cfg,maker: (1414) Command or menu named ChildElements has not been defined.maker: (1415) Command or menu named SiblingElements has not been defined.maker: (1417) Command or menu named ChildAttributes has not been defined.maker: (1418) Command or menu named SiblingAttributes has not been defined.maker: (1420) Command or menu named ChildElements has not been defined.maker: (1421) Command or menu named SiblingElements has not been defined.maker: (1423) Command or menu named ChildAttributes has not been defined.maker: (1424) Command or menu named SiblingAttributes has not been defined.The configuration file r

Upgraded to windows 10 and I cannot get my framemaker 7.1 to install, is there a fix for this issue?

Is anyone else having problems using Windows Explorer through TCS 2015 to process PDFs?I am using TCS 2015 on a 64-bit Win 7 box with 32 GB RAM.My workflow includes using Windows Explorer shortcuts to create PDFs from .fm files using either/or "Convert to Adobe PDF" or "Convert to Adobe PDF and EMail".Using either of those commands in Windows Explorer results in the error "There was a problem sending the command to the program", "the program" apparently being either/both FrameMaker 2015 and/or Acrobat DC (or Adobe PDF/Adobe Acrobat Distiller DC).FrameMaker starts as it should, and the file loads as it should, but apparently when FM calls Acrobat, it can't start as it should.I am a week out from a critical deadline of an internal workflow document discussing that exact functionality.If anyone knows the answer, it would be of GREAT interest to me...Thanks!(Related screen shot below...)
