Hi, I have a legit AV and I have a monthly subscription for FrameMaker. I am working on Windows 11. Recently, I received a notification from my AV that a file from Adobe FrameMaker was infected. Does anyone else have the same issue? What shall I do? See the attached screenshot. Since all my applications are licensed I am not using/downloading pirated applications. Quite unusual considering that the file is a file related to the FrameMaker application and not with a third-party application. Any idea is welcome. Sebastian
We are facing the issue of inserting a lengthy code in a Framemaker table.Is there an option to split the table automatically to multiple pages.i.e. After generating the pdf with multiple pages, and if I copy the code, then it must copy only the code and not the other contents of the pdf, like headers, footers, dates and other variables. Thanks in advance.
There is a custom style table that was created by a colleague who’s no longer with the company. I’ve removed the custom style table formatting; however, when I attempt to add the new color to the table header row, the top and bottom portions of that header row will not fill in with the color I’ve selected. I used Pargraph Designer > Advanced tab that gave me the new color blue. I attempted to use Table Desinger > Shading tab to no avail. Does anyone know how I’m able to get the top and bottom portions to fill in with the blue color I selected? See the images below for clarity. Initial color (Gray) for the table header row After adding the blue color to the table header row

Hello, I did new instalattion on my Win11 and now I am missing the publishing outputs icons (like PDF icon etc.) Thank you for advices. Adam
The unfriendliness of Framemaker is evidenced by this simple question. It's a very simple thing but apparently this takes expert knowledge. Somehow I ended up with and blank page in my Framemaker 9 document and I want to delete it. I have tried right-clicking on the blank page. I have tried Format menu: page layout: pagination... delete empty pages before saving and printing. No luck. Maybe I'm missing something obvious. Can anybody help?
FrameMaker 11 and DITA. We have a DITA document with some graphics imported by reference wider than a column. Is there a way to scale the image automatically to fit the column/anchored frame instead of cropping it when opening the document, f.ex in read/write rules? Any help appreciated.
I am working on structured documents using Frame 2019. We are using conkeyrefs on the keyword elements and some ph elements that contains a variable (outputclass-="variable"). In the past, we did not use conkeyrefs and I was able to control the color of the keywords as well as the text within the ph tag (our variable). I would hide the keywords and change the variable text from red (which was specified in the EDD) to black and be on my merry way. Now, with the conkeyrefs, if I add a new ph tag with the variable name and conkeyref, the color is red as I have specified in the EDD but after I select the appropriate ditamap that links the variable values and the taxonomy to the ph tag, the content turns blue and I cannot change it to another color even in the FM files which are used to create the PDF files for print. Unfortunately, the books that I need to produce contain hundreds and hundreds of these keywords and ph tags and the product is well over 1,000 pages. &nbs
Hello, I have a tricky problem, that I would need some help to solve. I have a structured document, that is structured like this: <rootElement> <child><content/> <child><content/> <child><content/> <child><content/> </rootElement> Each child element is an article and needs to fulfill 2 things: 1. have its own continual footnote numbering regardless of page or other child elements. 2. must allow for special cases to only have a star* instead of numerical numbering. What I have tried to solve (1): - Use RWR to split up all child elements into seperate documents, setup numbering and then reference them in a single document again while retaining formats, but FM updates the footnote numbering anyway. For (2) I can only imagine solutions that would require some intense workaround to insert supertext instead of actual footnotes to make it look like a footnote but have more control over what i
The recent profile change, implemented as part of the New Admin Console, put my FrameMaker subscription in a personal profile, but my Creative Suite subscription in a business profile. To use either profile you have to log in to that profile. Apart from how awkward this is, saving a PDF from FrameMaker will not now work, as the Acrobat Pro subscription is in the business profile. It would seem that Adobe have decided that an individual subscription to FrameMaker is for personal use. I have used the Chat app available at https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html however the first person, after I got through the BOT, was suggesting I cancel the subscription in the personal profile and add it in the business profile. Now the FrameMaker person is suggesting I have the CS subscription moved to the personal profile. The two subscriptions have been working together for several years now. Is it too much to expect that Adobe, given the profile change was made by Adobe,
I thought this would be an easy fix, but no! I tried re-tagging as a body/deleting; nothing works.This tag follows my Mini TOC. Thinking that the heading was somehow attached to the TOC, I removed the TOC, but the tag remains. Does anyone have any ideas on how to remove this tag? Thanks
I would like to validate a Dita file in Framemaker. I have the file open. In the Structure menu, the Validate... command is always grey. What's the trick?
Gentlemen, thank you all very much for your help on my original isue, following your advice I can now MIF the 5.5 and open them in FM2019.My next challenge, as I mentioned before I’m new to Frame maker, is that the frames which contain the illustrations have lost their height settings. So, I now have 2 frames with illustration locators in each all on one page, they should be on separate pages. In word I would just stretch the frame and it would all roll on adding new pages as it went, not in FM. Would anybody tell the secret to adding extra pages in a document, so add new pages at 3 and 4 not just the end? Please see jpg attachedThanks in advanceColin
My team works with Structured Adobe FrameMaker 11, version 11.0.0.380. There is an internally created Java-based application that runs on FrameMaker that launches a structured XML file from a FrameMaker menu bar selection and imports the XML into FrameMaker, which is then processed into a fully formatted document.The version of Java currently being used is the following:Java 8 Update 202My department is planning on replacing Java with Amazon Corretto:Amazon Corretto (x64) version 21.0.1.12 Does anyone have any experience working with Structured FrameMaker, along with Amazon Corretto? If so, have there been any performance issues involving Structured FrameMaker?Any information that can be provided will be helpful.Thanks
I have created a document using F_ApiCustomDoc() to output a table data.Before outputing the table data, I use the following code (1) to hide the document.(1)F_ApiSetInt(FV_SessionId, docToId, FP_IsOnScreen, False);And after outputing the table data, I use the following code (2) to show the document.(2)F_ApiSetInt(FV_SessionId, docToId, FP_IsOnScreen, True);This code works well until Framemaker2015.But when I executed with FrameMaker2020, the document isn't shown after (2). I don't know what is causing it.Do you have any solution?
I see there are a few diacritical marks to choose from in the equation options, but I don't see the one I need. Framemaker also doesn't seem to allow pasting a letter with a diacritical mark straight into an equation. Am I missing something really simple? I am looking to place this letter into my equation: ó I know I could proboably find a work-around, but would love to keep it simple. As a side question, what is the default font in FrameMaker equations?
Can anybody help with getting FM 5.5 files into FM 2019 please. A task I have been given, Im a relativley new FM user.
In Framemaker 2020 (Unstructured), I am using the publish feature to convert the book (comprised of 15 chapters) to pdf. When it is converted to pdf, the pdf text flow does not match the framemaker text flow on random pages. In Framemaker a particular page will appear full of text in the template (no room for additional text). In pdf, it will bring up a line from the next page. On other pages that appear full in Frame, the text flow matches the pdf exactly. As it appears to happen randomly, it has a ripple effect on pages throughout that particular chapter. I also tried using the save to pdf feature, with the same result. Is there a setting I am missing somewhere to keep this from happening?Jason E.
Hello, My FrameMaker 2022 crashes or freezes a lot, sometimes several times a day. It crashed eight times on Tuesday, three times on Wednesday, once yesterday and once today already. I usually get a message that looks like this:I try to e-mail fmerror@adobe.com and my messages come back as undeliverable. Please help. Thanks!
Hello,I need an Adobe FrameMaker script that analyzes the text frame contents, and locates any sentences starting with "A." and changes those to a specific paragraph catalog then removes the "A." from the sentence Thank you!
Adobe FramemakerVersion: 2022(17.0.2.431)Client has shared multiple FM Books (Manuals) for localization. These manuals have cross reference links within the manuals and also across manuals. When we create PDFs after localization and DTP one by one, the internal Cross-References links remain intact, but the links to other manuals do not work.To reset these cross-manual links, we had to re-create the Cross-Reference links in Adobe Acrobat again.Is there any way we can create all pdfs in a batch instead of one by one such that the cross-reference links within and across files remain intact?We do not want a single PDF for all books, client wants individual PDFs for each FM book. Client’s Cross-references FrameMaker Editing Instructions for manualsMethod for generating PDFs after completing DTP in FrameMaker (including setting all cross-reference links):(1) Open all manual FM books.(2) Open all the files in each book.(3) Generate PDF (Export to PDF format).

Hi,I am an elementary schoollibrarian new to Adobe. I have two presentation slides that were made using Adobe. I would love to know which apps were used and how they were made using Adobe. I think this will help me understand the apps better. Thank you so so much for the support and help!
I am trying to add a structured master page map so that I can exclude headers from certains parts of the publication. In my structured template that I have been using to build the publication, the only related reference page showing is UnstructMasterPageMaps, and I can't find any way to get StructMasterPageMaps to appear. I would like the ability to use element attributes to determine if a page should use a certain master page or not.
