Hello everyone:

I have some documents authored using FrameMaker 9. Is there any way i could open these using Frame 11 (or 2015) pls?

At the moment, I dont have either versions available and hence tried to download a free eval version from the Adobe site.

That attempt didnt go well.

Appreciate your advise.

Thanks & Regards,

Padma

Correct answer FieryPantone

From all I've heard and seen, you should have no problems opening FM files created by an earlier version of the product. I'm still coming across documents that haven't been updated since I was using FM10, and all that happens when I open them with FM12 is that I get a polite warning and the chance to update the format.

Going backwards can be a bit trickier, but you can post about that as a separate question if you ever need to ;-}
