Hello all,I am working on Framemaker Version: 17.0.5.725. unstructured.One of the document includes about 900 plus headings. Now, I want to create a list out of it (900 plus headings) in the same document. Do we have any option for creating such a list and also number it (I donot want a separate/mini TOC).Thanks in advance.  

Even after resetting preferences, and with a blank document, Fm crashes when using Edit > Update References to update Text Insets. Anyone able to successfully use that feature with 17.0.5?   Posted to tracker at  https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/FRMAKER-15131  

I am being a bit lazy here, but can someone point me to the FrameMaker 2022 FDK download link? Thank you.

I'm updating some minor details in the English and French versions of a document that was last worked on about 4 years ago.  The English version of the document has the simple black arrowhead-shaped bullets seen in the attached screenshots. The French version of the document has the same arrowhead-shaped bullets, but they're blue.  Maddeningly, the format looks exactly the same. Obviously, I'm not looking in the right place to make these bullet characters black in the French version of the document.  Any help would be greatly appreciated! Greatly appreciated...

Hello FM community,I am creating an output template for FM2022 for HTML5 output from unstructured FM books. I have twoissues with output that I have not been able to resolve. Issue with navigation menu entry for the home page:We have been using this method in the past (FM2017/FM2019), and I have found that a workaround that was possible in 2017/2019 does not work in 2022.The entry for the home page in the HTML5 navigation menu is not displaying the correct text for the home page. In past versions of FrameMaker, it was possible to save the FM document for the home page as a MIF file, search for the PDFDocInfo section, edit the Title value, remove a string of nonsensical numbers from PDFDocInfo, and save the MIF back to FM document. After doing so, the correct title would appear in the HTML5 navigation menu.In FM2022, if I do the same process, the navigation title still does not appear correctly, and additionally, the main title of the entire document disappears completely from the

While generating the TOC, I am unable to create link to 1.0 Introduction alone. Rest of them are working fine. Please suggest how do I insert the reference link to 1.0 Introduction? Many thanks.

I've written a script that provides a page and table count for each document and a total for a book.  I also want a count of all figures in each document. I tried the following, but counting graphic objects gives me a count that is many times more than the number of figures in the document.  function countFigures() { figureCtr = 0; var figure = doc.FirstGraphicInDoc; while (figure.ObjectValid()) { figureCtr++; figure = figure.NextGraphicInDoc; } return figureCtr; } I've searched the forum for other examples, without success.  We work with relatively large books and these totals are useful in assessing the level of effort for each book.Many thanks in advance...

Somehow, I changed the display of my FrameMaker window. The file list on the left is correctly placed. The content window, though, is expanded across the rest of the window, and the catalog panels are floating on top of the content. I want the content to be expanded only as much as it is magnified, with the scroll bar at the right edge. Right now, the scroll bar is at the far right of the window. I hope I've explained this right. Just in case, I've included a screen shot. Can you point me to the section of the help that tells me how to properly magnify or set up the window? 

No matter how I import a referenced graphic into my book files, Framemaker always uses an absolute path traversing the topmost  level of the file directory. My graphics folder is in the same directory as the FM files. (an cen even copy a pic to the same directory as the book but  it will still create an absolute path the graphic starting at C:\...  

My book chapter files no longer list under the book file. I used to see a + sign that would expand, but it's no longer there - instead there are 6 dots to the left of my book title. My other books are fine; it's just this one. I feel like I've searched and tried everything. Help would be appreciated. I'm sure I click on something I've never clicked on in 15 years.

My IT department installed FM 2019 but it will not license. I have tried several different locations with different internet access to see if our servers were blocking some thing but still nope.

I have a 22 page document that has 6 sections. The first 3 have 3 header levels to seperate numbering. The other only have a non-numbered title and section numbers starting with 1. I can reset each first section with a simple make this number 1 numbering format. But after that the numbering goes back to follow the last section. Is there a format that will reset the numbering back to 2 for the next group? 

Hello,In FrameMaker, I need to copy/paste a big number of texts (text only, no image).Does FrameMaker has a "clipboard" function ? Or could you advise me a good clipboard software that I could use with FrameMaker ? 

Framemaker crashes everytime I generate a PDF from my book. Has anyone else seen that?The files are saved before so data is not lost per se, but annoyingly recovery files from the past are potentially picked up after restoring the session.Windows 10 (unfortunately) and latest rev of the framemaker source (15.0.0.393). I've tried to send the dmp files to framemaker, but they have blocked bug reporting through e-mail.

1.) Numbering Properties / Chapter, from the Volume Tab> enter Volume # 13 (image 1)2.) Select the Continue Numbering From Previous Chapter in Book, rodio button. (image 1)3.) Select the, Set (No Undo) button. (image 1)4.) From the Chapter tab, this sets the #13 into the Chapter # entry box. (image 2)Now when I try to do this on #14 the Chapter tab sets #1 into the Chapter # entry box. This should be #14. Any help would be appreciated.

FrameMaker Version: 17.0.6.798 After I have upgraded to the latest FM version I have had font issues. Documents come up with missing fonts in the error log, but in the Fonts Panel everything is good. All fonts are ok and the error log does not detail WHAT fonts are missing.   And now this: "No openable  nongenerated files"... That's just FM files, right? I do have FM files in the book and they can all be opened.  I don't get it. Can anyone explain?

Hello, I have another really simple but annoying issue. I will get my workspace set up exactly the way I want it. I save it. And then as soon as I open another document, even in the same book, it all goes wonky again with the workspace bar changing and random panels opening up and my structure/book menu changing size. Is there something I am not doing that is causing this to happen? A coworker suggested saving a copy of the workspace file to my desktop so I can "reset" it but this happens almost every time I open a document, I don't have time to keep reloading a saved file like that.  Thanks,Dan

I am having publishing issues with Framemaker  Version: 17.0.5.725.  I have a 400 page structured document originally designed in Framemaker 2019. After upgrading to Framemaker 2024 (Version: 17.0.5.725) the files when view in Framemaker are formatted correct. When the document is published most, but not all of the tasks in the document are not placing images within the text. In many of the tasks the images are simply tagged on to the end of the task, not inbetween the  steps, as the images appear when viewed in Framemaker. What am I missing here?
