FrameMaker

In framemaker 2017, when I try to select a font by opening the font's family in character designer or paragraph designer, it crashes and framemaker closes.Reinstalling, updating, clearing the folder in AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker does the same. 

Using Structured Adobe FrameMaker 2022 (Version 17.0.0.226), my chapter headings (e.g., Installation, Service and Maintenance) are immediately followed by page breaks.  I don't want the subchapters to start on the next pages.  I have already tried, in the subchapter heading, clicking Insert >  Publish Marker > Remove All Page Break Markers.  It had no effect.  Please help.  Thanks.  

I am using FrameMaker 2022, and it seems really strange to me that when I want to change an image size, I have to change the master page to a non-landscape page, and only then can I edit the image size.  Switching master pages for this purpose alone is very time-consuming and tedious.  Isn't there a better way?  Why can't I change an image size when the master page is landscape?  Help is much appreciated!

Hi Can I make pdf(version1.4) not to use distiller with FrameMaker2020 ? or Can I change default pdf version in Framemaker2020?    

I'd like to customize my Character Catalog list, but it doesn't give me the option of retaining the Default Font selection. It isn't even among the selections you can choose to show or hide when editing for customization. Can someone offer a solution? I'd even settle for an explanation.

As of this morning, I am unable to launch FrameMaker 2019. It is stuck trying to validate my license. I am logged in, and as confirmed with both my company and Adobe support, I have a valid license for it. I have opened a ticket with support and provided logs. However this error is now occuring to other users at my company. Is there a server problem on Adobe's end? Did the licensing change? I also use FrameMaker 2020 and that opens fine. They were both covered under the same license, did those terms change? Has anyone else encountered this problem?

How do you tell if a FM file is a 2017 file vs a 2015 or earlier file?

Can anyone tell me if FrameMaker Super Find Change works with FrameMaker 2020 or if there is an alternative script for newer versions of FrameMaker.  If it works with FrameMaker 2020, can you point me to a working download link.  The Adobe server still has a description of FrameMaker Super Find Change, but the download links no longer work.  Thanks in advance. 

FrameMaker 2022- Version: 17.0.2.431/Win10.  I am publishing to html5 and I need to edit the the table outout styles in the table gallery These styles are supposed to reside here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe FrameMaker 2022\fminit\Publisher\Gallery\Tables   But here's the confusion. There are lot more styles than show in the Output Styles window and editing the specific style "ShadedAlternatingRows.htmtable" has no effect whatsoever. I would expect Publish to pick up the edited table style, but that does not happen. So... where are the settings controlling these styles? And why can I only see a small selection of table styles?  

Adobe Framemaker 8.0 I am on Windows XP. Dell computer. Xerox printer. I follow the basic instructions for renaming a file in a FM book (To change the name of a document in a book: 1. In the book window, select the file you want to rename, and then choose Edit > Rename File. 2. Type the new name of the file and press Return or Enter. When the alert message appears, click OK to update other files in the book.) but I do not get past step 1. Instead an error message comes up that says "The text cannot be changed. To change the name of this file, please display filenames." What is meant here by "filenames" and how/where would one display such?

Heading1's numbering restart again Adobe frame maker, how to fix? 

Hi, I'm looking to import my old Corel Ventura files (vp extension) into a new publishing program. I could covert the files to PDF, but I'm not sure how much extra work that would require to re-format. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

I've run into an odd scenario. I have several chapters (separate FM Documents) in my book. The first chapter in my book has the Chapter Numbering set to 1:All other chapters are set to "Continue Numbering from Previous Chapter in Book." After updating the book, when I open each Chapter (FM document), the chapter number shown is correct: the first numbered as Chapter 1, the second as Chapter 2, etc. The chapter numbers in the TOC are also correct. When I convert the book to PDF (Save as PDF or Publish), however, the numbering is reset, with the first chapter being Chapter 0, with the subesequent Chapters numbered sequencially from there. When I open the chapters (FM documents) to check, they still show the correct numbering. Any suggestions as to why this is happening? I can't find any reason for the the numbering to change during the PDF generation process.

I'm working on a function to clone the case of replacement text (change).  I can make many of the decisions on how to clone the replacement text (e.g., all caps, initial caps each word, or initial caps first word, etc.) based on the pgf[style].name.  However, the body text in our documents (chpara0, chsubpara1, etc.) start with a title followed by a period, then more paragraph text.  The first sentence (pgf title) is identified by a variable that includes <$chapnum> and the Paragraph Designer identifies the Position as "Start of Paragraph."  If my found text occurs in this section of the paragraph, I need to clone the change text so each word is an initial capital letter (i.e., title caps).    I've looked over a number of posts to this forum, but haven't run across anything that indicates how to identify this text from within a script. 

I want to create an enlarged PDF file with crop marks from my book using ExtentScript.For the enlarged output of the PDF file I found in the documentation the properties FS_PageHeight and FS_PageWidth.In the script I entered the desired sizes 222*291 mm in Metric specifications. But the size of the PDF file does not change.All other properties are taken over. What am I doing wrong? function saveBookAsPdf (book, name){    var params, returnParams, i, res;    params = GetSaveDefaultParams();    returnParams = new PropVals();    i = GetPropIndex (params, Constants.FS_FileType);    params[i].propVal.ival = Constants.FV_SaveFmtPdf;    i = GetPropIndex (params, Constants.FS_ShowBookErrorLogPublishing);    params[i].propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoYes;i = GetPropIndex (params, Constants.FS_PDFUseDistiller);    params[i].propVal.ival = 0;    i = GetPropIndex (params, Constants.FS_PDFPrimaryOutput);&nbs

Hi Community, I have many .fm documents and I have combined them all to make a book.I found some the cross-reference link missing bold in the pdf after printing the book, even though it was set up. (It only happens for books, not when printing separate files)Eg: The format of the cross-reference style.<Bold><~Reference><$paranum>, <$paratext> How to fix this error to keep property of cross-reference link when print book?

This should be simple. I understand how to create a graphics frame on the reference page and use the advanced tab of the paragraph designer to apply the graphic in the frame above the paragraph. I need to apply a different graphic based on the conditional text selection. I can't conditionalize the graphics frame, but I should be able to conditionalize table rows. According to this post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/framemaker-discussions/table-on-reference-page/m-p/12991444#M75070 - I should be able to insert a text frame inside the graphics frame and insert a table inside the text frame, insert my graphics inside the table and conditionalize the table rows (FM 2019) and that SHOULD work. But when I insert the text frame, the option to insert a table is grayed out. What am I missing or is there a more simple solution?

When using the Save as PDF or Publish options, the @ symbol and fullstop in URLs are replaced by the ` (grave) and ' (apostrophy) characters, respectively.  In some cases, where the text is bold, spaces are replaced by the > character. Where the < and > characters are used, they are replaced by a triangle and square, respectively.This doesn't happen when Printing to PDF.I've not run into this issue before, but am using a different front (Montserrat). Could this be an issue with the font when generaing PDF? Do I need to change something in the Publish Settings?Much appreciated.

Hello,In the PDF review process, FM asks me to enter the email address of the reviewers.But on this window I can enter only one address after the other. How to enter by example a list of 50 email addresses in one go ? 

Two years ago I migrated my template from using the Lucida family created by Charles Bigelow (which I met personally in the 1990ies) to the more Uniccode savvy Noto family for the main text elements (body, lists, tables etc). In particular I wanted to use the condensed variation in tables. I never got problems within FrameMaker: When creating a PDF via PDFL then the text areas with this font are blank - but use space. Recently I again was trapape the miniTOC did not appear in PDF. I had not correctly updated my styles and hence the Noto Sans Condensed dragon spit fire. Creating the PDF via the Distiller route presents something, but this is garbage (not just a font substitution)This is independent of SaveAs or Publish. In the PDF the font Noto Sans Cond is not listed at all - hence it is not found in Windows font folder (where all the fonts reside) - or there is another reason for this. My personal circumvention of the Noto Sans Condensed problem: Use Noto Sans and apply stretch 85%

I've recently converted a FM2020 document to PDF by printing to a PDF printer. Had the following problems and would appreciate recommendations. Thanks so much.   - The document includes a .png image with a transparent background. Although the background appears transparent in FM, in the PDF it is not (surrounded by a white box);   - None of the external hyperlinks in the document are in the PDF. I know I could insert these in the PDF after the conversion but I don't have Acrobat currently and would prefer not to have to take this step.
