Question

Marks and bleeds differ between FM 2020 and 2019

Hi,

 

I'm having a problem with outputting a pdf with the correct registration marks and bleeds. In FM 2019, I can create a PDF with the correct marks and bleeds (refer to attached picture on the left), where as in FM 2020, the registration marks appear in a different spot (attached picture on the right). I'm using トンボ  (tonbo, Japanese).

 

In terms of the output method to create PDF's, I'm using the File -> Print -> Adobe PDF method. However, going through the "Publish" window and applying the correct settings to create a PDF produces the same result. Is there any way I can fix this?

 

To try to fix the issue, I have used the identical settings in both versions of FrameMaker and Adobe Acrobat, however this does not solve the problem. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Worth a shot - I suggest you ping the FM folks - see https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#framemaker for your Adobe Support options. I'd recommend using the tcssup@adobe.com e-mail address as it reaches a team dedicated to Technical Communication Suite products including FrameMaker.

    What point version of FM2020 are you running? IIRC there were some PDF producing fixes in one of the patches.

    Hi Jeff,

     

    Thanks for the reply. I'm running version 16.0.4.1062 of FM2020. I tried updating via Help -> Update in FrameMaker, however I am apparently running the latest version.
