FrameMaker

I am creating a flow chart and have to move some objects around. I have an arrow that I believe I set as "send to back" that I cannot select in order to delete it.Any way of doing this?Thanks

"One or more of the files in your FrameMaker book is not a FrameMaker document. This file will be ignored while FrameMaker updates the book."Nonsense, of course, but I notice the file in question (not always the same file) temporarily loses its .fm icon in the book panel.My guess would be, network problems slowing the writing of updates; any comments before I mildly mention this to our IT Support?

Hello, I am a beginner in ExtendScript and I need to outsource the graphics of my docs. I wish to create a file .fm for each graph found in the doc to be able to generate the images apart and not have to rebuild for each change of doc. I advance slowly with the docs and examples that I found but I still can not do what I want. For now I wanted to do this as follows: var doc = app.ActiveDoc; if(doc.ObjectValid()) {         var inset = doc.FirstGraphicInDoc;        while(inset) {          // Create empty doc from a template          var newDoc = SimpleNewDoc(File($.fileName).parent.fsName+ "\\" + "DocGraphicTemplate", 0);              // Insert graphic in created doc.          // I still don't know how to do this...       &n

Is there a way to search in FrameMaker 10 for broken (ie: red + symbols or red boxes) structure in a book?It seem like the only way to find broken structure is by viewing the structure tree of each document.I would like to be able to search for broken structure, using some kind of search parameter in the book.Is that possible?Thanks!

Is there a way in FrameMaker 10 to search for a missing opening or closing parenthesis?Must I do a search for each opening parenthesis and see if it has a closing parenthesis?Then repeat the search for a closing parenthesis to see if it has an opening parenthesis?Is this the only way?

Is there a way to search in FrameMaker 10 for missing periods in a book?Is there some kind of wildcard, such as:a/p (/p meaning end of paragraph)b/pc/petc?Then search for each letter and end of paragraph.Is that possible?Thanks!

Using FrameMaker 12, I have to create a TOC inside a table. That means, 1st column must contains the paragraphs number, 2nd column the paragraphs text, 3rd column the page numbers. Of course, each element must fill each table cell. I have uploaded an example.Thank you for your helpNicolas

Please help me with the following:I'm using FM 10.I have chapters in my book. And i have inserted images by reference. Now the problem here is if the folder is removed the images disappear.I need your help to understand how to copy all those referenced images into the chapter. Thanks in advance.

My techcomm group hasn't updated Frame in a while, obviously. I'm the "guinea pig" to test how our docs work with the newest version of Frame. However, I still need to be able to work in and save existing documents for other users -- coworkers who still have Frame 7 -- to work in them.So... can I?

Hi, I'm trying to discover how to setup a Silent install for Framemaker 12.  It doesn't appear as if the AAMEE works with Framemaker, as it only works for the Creative Suite apps; is there a similar customizable installer for the Technical Communication Suite apps?  I will be deploying Framemaker as a packaged install via SCCM, so I need to be able to silently install it without the endusers having to input the license key or activate it.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I need to convert a large doc from Word to FM11. I have imported it and am ready to start cleaning it up, but it needs a lot of retagging because all of the styles/tags aren't the same. Global update isn't working, and I think it's because all the tags are identified as overrides [they have an *]. Is there a way out of retagging these manually? Thanks for any help!

Printing my Text with referenced pictures as PDF-file and sending this to the printer, I have get a hardcopy a good quality but sending it to the same printer directly from FrameMaker the pictures are more or less in preview-quality. Did I miss to change some FrameMaker-settings or what is wrong?

We need to buy Adobe Framemaker version 11. The distributor is only able to provide us with version 12. Can someone suggest me how is it possible to get the license for ver 11 serial  key after purchasing ver 12 and also how to get the download details ?   Urgent response will be helpful.D

I just want a general idea about the cost level, no need to be detailed. Because I understand the enterprise-level software has complex price calculations.

I'm running FM 11 on the following Windows 7 machine:Core i7 with 16Gb RAMI also have the following CC apps installed:PhotoshopInDesignIllustratorPremiere ProI was working on a FM doc yesterday no problem. Today FM seems to be totally unresponsive, apart from being able to open, save and close books and or files. I can't enter text, scroll down a page or use the navigation keys. No other Adobe apps seem to have been affected. Anyone else had this issue?Mark

I've installed and registered TCS 5.0. RH 11 works just fine, but FM 12 doesn't work: when I open FM, I see the splash screen, but it then fails. Updating to 12.02 made no difference.Suggestions, please? I don't want to uninstall and reinstall just to see if that fixes it unless I have to: TCS 5.0 is a honking big install and it'll take a while.Thanks very much for your help and suggestions!Yours truly,John Hedtke

When printing to file in Fm 12 getting the following error message 'Cannot write to specified print file'Marian

Hi, we are now using TortoiseSVN, which is free. I wonder if there is any better solutions? I checked FM Guide, there are three: Adobe Eexperience Manager, EMC Documentum, MS SharePoint. What is your reccommendation? BTW, is AEM free?

The process to log in and gain access to new licenses is not intuitive through the log in process.  Where do I find the licenses purchased and authorize use for our Agency partner?

Our client works on Adobe FrameMaker 9, we would like to work on FrameMaker 12. Is it possible? Are the programs compatible?

Good morning all,I need to install for testing Framemaker 12. In my enterprise, our workstations are not connected to internet. Is someone can tell me if there is a solution to install this software without internet connexion ?Thank youStéphane

(FM11 on Win7)What will make the end result maintainable and the make the transition easy? A set of project files has the following structure:*.book // some for deliverables; some are "workbench" books for managing content*.book-generated files, such as *TOC.fm and *IX.fmch_*.fm // These are chapter files that are part of the book. They include ch_*TOC.fm files as insets.ch_*TOC.fm // these are the chapter TOC files_Graphics // a folder that contains graphics files_Insets; a folder of text insets. Some point to files in the _Graphics folderTo "clean" the top level of the master folder so that it is easier for multiple authors to share, we are considering repositioning:The book files and their generated files to a _Books folder, or maybe a different _Book folder for each type of deliverable. We will create more books in the future.Chapter and chapterTOC files to a new folder. We will create more chapters in the future.The proposed structure is:_Books // contains that .book file from abo

why is the save as review pdf grayed out in FM 12. i just upgraded to TCS 5. Was working fine in TCS 4.

Goodmorning,First sorry for my english.I have a big problem with the new version of Framemaker 11.if I create an xml connecting the external svg (created in Illustrator) Framemaker with version 11 (Windows 7), raster images inside the svg are not displayed in the preview, only text and vector files.If I try to open an xml file created with version Framamaker like 9 or 11 on windows XP the element "stepimage" with whom I connect the svg are no longer present on the tree.If I insert again the stepimage tree, they become disproportionate size.In fact, opening them with Illustrator CC dimensions have changed (I have not edited the picture.)However, still do not appear raster files.I hope someone can help me.Thanks[Discussion moved to Structured FM by moderator]

I have placed my graphics into a specific folder so that i can import by reference. However, the software user interface has changed to wide screen. So if I do a new screen shot and save as the original file name I STILL have to adjust the resolution for each one. Anyway that this works automatically?
