The command line code example below needs to span 2 lines to fit the page but the line originally does not break and should not break. It needs to be one single command line. The document is not structured so we do not use elements. The code example is simply contained in a table cell. Is there a way to force or prevent the command line string from breaking as the customer often cuts/pastes the code into their editor and has to edit it manually? Do i need to use Elements or can i do it in an unstructured way?code e.g # modprobe moal_5x17283_pcie_8997 drv_mode=1 cal_data_cfg=none cfg80211_wext=0xf fw_name=nxp/pcieuart8997_combo_v4_5x17283.bin

Amidst the bookmars of an FM book level 1 marks are not in order: Those marked by { should be below the yellow area. The PDF setup is the same in all chapters and in the book. I have checked and generated 3 times  by Save as PDF. Any ideas where to look for the reason of this?

Some information is available only by extracting it from a source by means of command-line programs. I wanted to get meta information (number of pages, etc.) out of PDF files. This can be done with xpdfinfo.exe (http://www.xpdfreader.com/). Assume you have all ingredients in one directory (unfortunately a ZIP can not be attached, even with name XMP - so see my website)   ExecuteBatFile.jsx GetPDFinfo.jsx GetScriptPath.jsx Message.jsx PDF-6pages-landscape.pdf pdfinfo.exe   If in the central part of function GetPDFinfo.jsx files are references relatively:   REM Generated by function GetPDFinfo pdfinfo.exe FMjsxLib_lib_DOM.pdf > pdfinfo.txt   ... the required batch file is produced within the current directory, it is also executed (a flicker indicates open/close of the console window) - but you do not thet the output text file. Since the bat file is still there, you can double click on it to produce the desired output - but this is not available within the function

 I am working in a file that has multiple output versions in it using conditional tags, including multiple tags being applied to the same blocks of text. Because FrameMaker defaults to the "show" tag, I've had to build conditional expressions to define all the various combinations, which was working until now. For example, the below image shows what I want turned on and off for one version, but I have text that is tagged Arch + Structure, Metric + Structure, Arch + Metric + Structure, etc. that is defaulting to being shown when it should be hidden. This is the expression I am currently using:not "MEP" and not "Metric" and not "PracticeFilesLink" and not "Arch" and not (("MEP" and "ChptRevAnswers" ) and not ( "MEP" and "Imperial" ) and not ( "MEP" and "InstructorGuide" ) and not ( "MEP" and "Metric" ) and not ( "MEP" and "PracticeFilesLink" ) and not ( "MEP" and "Print Only" ) and not ( "Arch" and "ChptRevAnswers" ) and not ( "Arch" and "Imperial" ) and not ( "Arch" and "

I am getting a little annoyed with the display and processing of graphics in FM 2022 and decided to do a more systematic test. So this is the display of a selection of imported graphics in FM2022: As can be seen the original graphic - which is transparant and resides in the middle of a square bounding box, is diplayed with a white background in all iterations exept png. Jpg files do not support transparancy, so that display is correct. All the others are varying degrees of incorrect with the svg version taking the prize. Above is what comes out when distilled and saved as print pdf. As can be seen SVG is completely wrong and so is the PNG. The file formats and standards I have used in this test are the most common file formats in the graphics industry and I would expect both preview and rendering to work. In this test it only jpg which truly works in both preview and pdf.      

Dear team, I don't know what happened in backend from last two days the bookmarks are not coming after saving as pdf in framemaker.. Attached pdf set up and final output of pdf..  Kindly clarify me what might have happened in backend..

I am finding that my PDF output does not include a bookmark for the table of contents generated from a DITA map.If you think this is a good idea, you can vote for it at the Adobe Tracker site (tracker.adobe.com).I have submitted a bug to Adobe: FRMAKER-9769

I'm working with a two-page LOT file. The master pages are defined as First and Last. On the First master page I have a title, "List Of Tables", with the paragraph tag "Heading 1 for Lists". I defined a Running H/F 12 variable as  "<$paratext[Heading 1 for Lists]>". I inserted the Running H/F 12 variable into the footer on the Last master page. I made sure that the corresponding body page is using the "Last" master page. However, the Running H/F does not appear on the body page. I'm not having this problem with any of my other files. What am I missing? Any and all suggestions/solutions very much appreciated.

I have made a suggestion on the ACE Hub that a community reward might be a years subscription to the FrameMaker Template Shop products. If  there are others folks here from the ACE hub who would like to see that kind of reward, please support it on ACE.

Hello,In Frame Maker I know how to do this quotation mark :   «But I don't know how to do this :   »

If anybody here needs a fresh design for their technical documentation, I have just published a new US letter template design. And for those wondering what "Aguamiel" is... It is the sugar juice of agaves used for producing tequila/mezcal. It's bit of a joke name - all templates have names associated with tequila production 🙂   https://framemaker.dk/en/hikashop-menu-for-brands-listing/product/50-aguamiel-us-letter-template

I sent FM files to someone for edits, but Imges inserted to it are asking for location. Is there a option by which I can sent a complete FM files to someone where there is no image's location issue.

Referring to How to detect disconnected pages: I have a problem interpreting the term "disconnected page". I have a 6 page document On page 4 I set Format > Customise Layout > Disconnect Next Pages 1 - 4 are in Flow A, same for pages 5 and 6. The two areas ar disconnected: Now I run a script derived from Rick's (ZIP on my website, script is  in subDir Demos ) It reports pages 1, 2, 3, 4 as disconnected. Yes, they are disconnected from the rest. ► IMHO I do not get a direct information, on which page I  have to fix the conncection (4). What's wrong with my perception?   I have noticed that the ID of the main flow A changes with Disconnection Previous, but not with Disconnection Next: No disconnection present: Disconnection Next applied on page 4: main flow id: 5036400751 : 5036400752 : 5036400753 : 5036400754 : 5036400755 : 5036400756 : 503640075 main flow id: 5036400751 : 5036400742 : 5036400743 : 5036400744 : 5036400745 : 5036400756 : 503640075 BTW af

I am publishing a book to HTML5. It contains several sections (chapters) each is a separate fm document within the book.I have set the HTML5 mappings to split into topics based on style Heading1 which gives me a new HTML page for each Heading1 - which is great.I have also set the paragraph style 'ChapterHeading' to also split into topics - this is a higher level heading than Heading1 and appears once at the start of each chapter (ie. each separate fm document in the book).This appears to create two higher levels in the TOC in the HTML document - see the attached example.Why is it adding two levels?The only settings I can find which control topic splitting in the HTML5 output are:Style Mapping > {Paragraph Style} > Split into topics based on this style (which I have set as above) andStyle Mapping > General Settings > Split into topics using marker - this is unchecked.I am using a modified version of the 'Theme3_Black" HTML5 template from the framemaker 2022/Robohelp template

Hello all,I´m trying to find the solution how to change publishing settings to generate and save .pdf file directly to the chosen Output Folder.  Now it automatically creates new folder 01_HLAVA1 in the Output Folder: Then sub-folder PDF: And then finally I can find .pdf file. Do you have any suggestions how to solve this? Thank you. Adam  

I have some graphics in my FrameMaker document which need to fit the width of the page.When I export the document to HTML5 they seem to be fixed to exactly 642.52pxI would like them to be 800px wide however there doesn't seem to be anywhere to set this.I looked in the Publish Settings > Edit > Style Mapping > Image Setttings and alsoPublish Settings > Edit > Style Mapping > General Settingsbut there seems to be no way to adjust the pixel value of the 'full-width' HTML output.Is there any way to do this other than manually editing the <object width="xxxx"> tag in the HTML?

I'm creating an element in my EDD to add custom HTML/CSS tags using Prefix rules.  However, I found that FrameMaker automatically adds the ">" character to the end of the Prefix rules, e.g. the Prefix Rule: <a href= shows as <a href=> in the document. Using Autonumbering can't be used because the autonumbering isn't copied when we copy the text from the document into another application.Why is FM adding the extra ">" character and how do I stop this from happening?

I am using FM2022 to publish HTML5 OLH. Up until now, I have had no problem with the HTML5 TOC, but now I am getting a few stray, or "phantom" entries. Oddly, these phantom entries are not part of any heading, so technically should not appear in the TOC. As expected, they do not appear in the TOC in FM nor the TOC in the PDF.

Hello,In Frame Maker I have opened 4 FM files at one time.I have noticed that the units are all in "inches", but I would like to have the units in mm.So in the first FM opened document, I gone in View/Options and change it from inches to mm and it worked.But for the others documents they remain in "inches".How to set the unit in mm in the preferences ? Or is it a way to have the units in mm for all documents I will open ?

Hi all, I want to delete all empty pages of the document. When there are empty disconnected pages added I can't detect them in order to delete. Is there a way to do that? Thanks in advance

I am creating some new documents based on older documents and they have a creation date variable inserted. I would have expected the creation date variable to update, once I save my document under a new name, but that does not happen. How do I fix it?  

I am trying to write a script in Extendscript that will allow us to import a multi-page PDF into the FrameMaker document using the script instead of inserting one page at a time.We are currently using FrameScript to do this, but I know that FrameScript is going away at some point and we will eventually need to convert to Extendscript. So I am trying to stay ahead of the curve. Does anyone already have a script that they use that does this? Or any tips for how to begin to create this script? Thanks for your help!
