In the screen shot attached, I have text on page 8 and I want Policy - Configuration - Uncategorized and the text and following table to continue in the space on page 8 instead of starting at the top of page 9.  Probably a simple fix but haven't run into this previously. Thanks.

I’m converting DITA XML documents into FrameMaker documents by applying paragraph and table styles through the EDD. I’ve created a new table style, formatted it in my document template, defined it in my EDD with a context formatting rule. The table cells are being correctly formatted, but the table seems to default to having the row lines included. I don’t want the row lines and have removed them from the table style in my document template. FrameMaker 20 (v17.0.1.305) Thanks, Bruce Sanchez   [PII removed by Moderator]

I used structured framemaker. I saved the book file as XML.In XML file, And I look at the tag, the alignment value for the image has been entered. (align="acenter")Where can I modify this value? I want to set the align value.I checked the attribute values of the elements, but there was no connection.I checked the attribute values of the element, but there was not relevant. <ImageData entity="ImageData1" impsize="5.421in 3.955in"impby="ref" sideways="0" impang="0.000" xoffset="0.000in"yoffset="0.014in" position="inline" align="acenter"cropped="0" float="0" width="5.449in" height="3.983in"angle="0.000" bloffset="0.000in" nsoffset="0.000in"/>

I have created a List of Effective Pages using the List of Paragraphs function. It is all working exactly as intended except for one thing. For the first page of each section the entry for the Issue Number and Issue Date is listed before or above  the Section Number. Thus the Issue Number and Date appears as the last page of the section before.  How can I change the order of the items so that the Issue Number and Date appears below the Section Number. I have attached a picture where you can see what I'm talking about. Currently the text for the Section Number is in the heading for the the Table of Contents page for that section.  I could "fix" the issue by inserting another page at the front of each section which has just the Section Number on it but I'd rather not have to do that.  I've figured out how to re-arrange the order of the data contained within each entry by re-arranging these on the Reference pages and figure there is probably a

How do I get FrameMaker text into a string using ExtendScript?

I am writing code in C++ on Visual Studio (hereinafter referred to as VS) to create a plug-in (dll) to add a menu using FDK.I created a simple sample using VS2022 (FDK2022 specification) to display "Hello World" when FramaMaker2022 starts."Hello World" is displayed when common language runtime support is set to "Do not use common language runtime support"But,If I select "Common Language Runtime Support (/clr)", an error message will be displayed indicating that the API client cannot be initialized.Do you know if it is possible to specify "Common Language Runtime Support (/clr)" as the common language runtime support when creating a FramaMaker2022 plug-in (dll)?If it is possible to specify this, I would appreciate it if you could give me advice on setting other items.

I am trying to delete this 'Chapter 1' from the template, but when I do that, it appears in the next page. Please suggest how can I delete this. 

We are using FrameMaker 2017 for a document that typically publishes to PDF but now must publish to HTML, as well.  We've resolved most of the mapping issues, but we continue to struggle with the output graphics, particularly with equations. Equations are converted to images in the HTML output (and in most non-PDF outputs I've tested), but the images are so blurry and poorly rendered that they can't be used. In the Style Mapping settings, the JPEG resolution option only goes up to 100! I've tried multiple setting changes and it only gets worse, not better. Is there some way to increase the equations output resolution or is this a known issue for which Adobe has no solution yet? 

Does anyone know a way to move the insertion point and focus to the first paragraph of a document using ExtendScript?  When one of my script ends, the insertion point and focus (page displayed) is wherever the insertion point is located in the document when it finishes.  I'm looking for code that moves the insertion point to the beginning of the first paragraph in the document and also displays the first page on the screen similar to how "Go to First Page" in the Page Status tool at bottom of FrameMaker does.  I could close and reopen the document, but I don't want to automatically save the changes until the editor has reviewed them.  I've searched, but can't seem to find anything about this on the forum.

Hey guys, it seems FrameMaker has an issue with building PDF with several fonts (left out in PDF). We're trying to fix that issue for a couple of weeks now and it looks like FM can't handle fonts with bigger names such as "Segoe UI Variable Small Semibol" "Bahnschrift SemiLight SemiConde[...]" "Open Sans SemiCondensed SemiBol[...]". Is there any fix for this? Perhaps it works for other users? As we rely on the Open Sans fonts (official google fonts) this is critical for us 😞 Building PDF with these fonts using other tools (Word etc.) works perfectly. Any help is greatly appreciated! 

I have an Adobe illustrator graphic template designed for a landscape full page in framemaker. The graphic in Illustrator is sized at 8.7 in x 5.87 in. This template has been used through years of Framemaker upgrades. Previously I was using Framemaker 2020, no problems.  After upgrading to Frame 2022, I opened the book, it asked me to link the graphic, and now the anchor frame for a full landscape graphic is a half page landscape anchor frame.  I deleted the graphic and anchor frame and tried to reimport it.  To import the graphic, I put the mouse (I-beam) on a new line, select File>Import>File and select the AI graphic. It still opens up as a half page landscape graphic. The only way I can fix the graphics is select each anchor frame throughout the book and edit the frame back to full page landscape.   Any idea why this is happening?I attached a photo of the landscape page. In Frame 20, this was a full page graphic. When upgrading to

Does anyone know if you can change the default search text that appears when you publish a Framemaker book to HTML5. I can change the default color of the Search text by editing the Layout, but can't figure out how to change the default text in the search box. It says "-Search-" by default. I was looking to add a note to enclose the search phrase in double quotes to narrow the results found.  Thank you. 

I can't figure out why the formatting of my cross references is working unpredictably. I have two character formats, "Bold" and "Blue"   I want my cross references to look Bold and Blue when applied, so I am adding this code to the definition: <Blue> <Bold>Chapter <$chapnum>, Section <$paranum>. <$paratext> This code will produce this cross reference: While it works, I am consternated about the code applying Bold and Blue. I want to get rid of the space between <Blue> <Bold> because it adds an unwanted empty space in front of the cross reference. But if I remove that space, this is what's happening: But why? Should the bracket not be enough to separate the two formats? And it is not even consistent behaviour. Some cross reference formats do NOT have the empty space, but works nevertheless!    

I'm trying to write my first script and I ran into a problem. I don't understand how to save the real value of a system variable to a variable. I only get the building blocks, not the value.I'm sorry, I understand that this is a very stupid question.

I am working in FrameMaker 2022, version 17.0.3.546. We export our files from FrameMaker to BasicHTML using the Publish option. Any images that we have added drawn arrows to are distorting when the program outputs them to SVG (see examples below).  1) How can I stop this from happening? It primarily appears to be an issue with curved arrows, but it's possible straight arrows and other shapes are still distorting, just not as obviously. OR 2) Is there a way to change the Publish settings so these images are NOT converted to SVG?  Original SVG output 

I used Superscript (Registered symbol) in the headings, but when I generate FM TOC, it is not picking superscript. Please suggest solution. 

Hi. I have a plugin working with FM2015.I use the following code to add an anchored frame and change the property.AFrameId = F_ApiNewAnchoredObject(docId, FO_AFrame, &Loc); props = F_ApiGetProps(docId, AFrameId); j = F_ApiGetPropIndex(&props, FP_AnchorType); props.val[j].propVal.u.ival = FV_ANCHOR_SUBCOL_LEFT; j = F_ApiGetPropIndex(&props, FP_Fill); props.val[j].propVal.u.ival = FV_FILL_WHITE; ... F_ApiSetProps(docId, AFrameId, &props); F_ApiDeallocatePropVals(&props);After running F_ApiGetProps(), the following internal error occurs.This plugin works well with FM2020, but not FM2015.Is there a way to solve this?

I built my single source FM file, which is supposed to produce 2 PDFs. I need to hide some content for now and when I try to do that Framemaker shuts down during the save process. Any suggestions?

When I update the book I always get the following Book Error Report (see attached screenshot below):It gives the same info for each section of the book (I am only showing the TOC and the first section). I usually ignore this, close the error message and move on, but I would like to know how to resolve this if possible. Thank you.
