Is it possible to change the default setting in the FrameMaker 11 PDF Set UP window to RGB. The current default setting is CMYK.

I have not been able to find a way to do this.

Thank-you for your assistance.

Brenda

That's a document level property in FM (<DPDFConvertCMYK boolean> entry in the MIF file). If it's already set in your template(s), then any derived documents should have this setting the way you want.

Thank-you. This solved the problem.

I have another questions. I am importing xml feeds into a FM11 using an automated process. After importing, the xml feeds are translated into a formatted FM11 file. When I perform a Save As in order to save the document as Document 11.0 (.fm), I am noticing that the default choice is to save the document as XML. I need to choose Document 11.0 (.fm) before saving. I checked the FrameMaker template and its default setting Save As setting is Document 11.0 (.fm). Is there a way for me to change a setting so that the imported file has a default Save As setting of Document 11.0 (.fm)?

Is this process using structured or unstructured FM? With structured FM, I believe that the function is hardwired to go out by default in the same format as the file is opened with, e.g. open an XML, save as an XML file. This could be automated with a script (Extendscript or Framescript).
