Hello,I am currently working on a migration project for my firm.I am using conversion tables to transform our FM files into DITA files and come across a few issues I would like to discuss with you.Do you know if it possible to perform the following actions: How to Split one FrameMaker file into several Dita files?How to rename the output files, if there is a way to do so automatically?Is there a way to assign IDs to the DITA elements (step tags for example) automatically, via the conversion table?Many thanks in advance.Best regards,Marc
I've created a FrameMaker 12 document of pages with a special appearance. After hours of work juggling paragraph tags I've got the Table of Contents looking like I want.When I "Publish" it to a Microsoft HTML Help file (a chm file), the topic pages look the way I want. The Contents panel on the Help file looks the way I want!BUT... There's a "ribbon" across the top of the page window. What is this? Where did it come from? And most important --- How do I get rid of it?
Hi,Is there any possibility of creating a drop-down hotspot in FrameMaker 10. I have a document of 1000 pages and it would really help if I can create such links. Please check the image for better understanding.Any other ideas would also be of great help. Thanks!
I have heard advice (opinions) suggesting that the FrameMaker 13 (2015) Parse Structured Document functionality is dated and not always reliable. Does anyone have experience with a trusted SGML parser that supports Unicode, for checking markup before delivering it to my customers? I understand nothing is 100%. I'm just looking for comments about good experiences. I am saving out of Structured FrameMaker as XML, with post-processing that produces DTD-compliant SGML.Thanks for your interest and time,Mongo-Man
Is there a good way to remove/fix REFERENCES TO UNDECLARED ID's?
I'm supposed to have the mobile app publisher in FrameMaker 12, but I don't see it in the Publish tab when I click File-->Publish. Does anyone know how I can find it or why it's not there? I've never used it before, but I'd like our team to start.
I am creating an Android mobile app from a book. When in Publish Settings > Application Details, when I try to change the Splash Screen image it reverts to the Icon image.I locate the Icon image and then the splash screen image. After selecting the Splash screen image the image that displays in the dialog box is the Icon image. After generating the apk the Icon is OK but the Splash screen briefly displays a white screen. I have tried to follow instruction in the Help but it still reverts back when I edit Settings.- John

I know it works in v11. But it definitely does NOT in v12 (at least not the version I have installed). Is there a patch that fixes this? What is everyone doing for a workaround?BG: I use IORs (indexes of references) to check my large books' fonts, external xrefs, conditional text, and most importantly imported graphics. Books that worked flawlessly in v11 to create all of these in my IOR do NOT create the imported graphics entries in v12, even though all other generated entries in the IOR update successfully.
Morning all,I've been trying to do setup stuff for 2015 for importing XMLs (up until now i've just been playing around with existing books in 2015) and i'm getting some issues with the stylesheet trhowing up errors, some of them are mapping/linking dtd locations but i'm not too fussed on them. one i've got thats causing me a bit of issue is:XSLT Processor MessagesFatal Error at file C:\AM\Application\OG-Import.xsl, line 1438, char -1, Message: Arithmetic operator is not defined for arguments of types (xs:string, xs:decimal)Arithmetic operator is not defined for arguments of types (xs:string, xs:decimal)The section is question being:<xsl:template name="Get-size"> <xsl:param name="length"/> <!-- Get the number part by blanking out the units part and discarding white space. --> <!--xsl:variable name="number" select="normalize-space(translate($l
One of those small, occasional, not-desperately-important questions: but it's Friday afternoon, and I have time to be curious.I've just opened a small file containing an overview of product specs, feeling it might be helpful if all the product manuals had a specs chapter. For historical reasons, all the styles in this document have names like :a1XR – :a1 is my normal style for an appendix heading, XR is for this appendix covering the XR variant of the product.The quickest way to get the generic document I'm after would be adjust the definition and then change the style name to :a1 – but apparently this is not allowed! I can type in a new name that doesn't start with :a1, but I cannot (and may not-) rename :a1XR as :a1So I created a new style, deleted the redundant :a1XR, and renamed the new style :a1 – could have been simpler, I feel.
Hi, I´ve an issue with FM10 and hotspots.When I call to a figure/graphic/image from a Data Module (S1000D 2.3) wich has hotspots the FM does not charge automatically them.I mean, other partners open the same files and when opening the cgm file in the DM the isoview starts and shows the hotspots inside the technical illustration to select them, but I don´t know why in my FM, Isoview does not start (it is installed too).Could somebody help me? I have reinstalled isoview, FM, etc... and the problem persist.Does another way to include hotspots exists?Thanks in advance.Regards,Javi.

I've been working on a branded layout for our Responsive HTML5 output from FrameMaker. I started with the Charcoal Grey layout files, which are available here: RoboHelp screen profiles and layoutsI only noticed after customizing the layout stylesheet that the Charcoal Grey layout -- unlike the default and Azure Blue layouts -- has an annoying bug on iOS which causes things to "grow" (not sure what the scaling/zoom issue is here) when the device orientation changes, basically rendering our manuals unusable. Has anyone figured out a way around this? Is there something we can tweak in the Charcoal Grey layout to make it behave nicely on the iPhone and iPad?
I am creating responsive HTML5 output from FrameMaker. Can you embed a custom font so the output looks correct no matter what fonts are installed on the users' machine?
Is it possible to create templates without odd-even pages for use in digital content? Without the traditional right page, left page book format? Would it be easy to migrate to such a template if you've always used odd-even page template?

I've upgraded from FrameMaker 11 to FrameMaker 2015 and some variables seem to have gotten corrupted.This is an example of one of my variables in FrameMaker 11:This is how that variable displays in FrameMaker 2015, with a huge gap between the first two words:I've tried updating the character tags in the definition, substituting other character tags, and even rebooting my system, all with no solution.
