How to get User Guide PDFs of older FM versions

[K.Daube]

Dear all - especially FM users with a German implementation.

User Guide and other documentation is found by using the links provided by Help > Getting Stated > Learning Resources.

But although these links claim to provide a PDF they actually provide the same thing as you are already in - a HTML thingy presented in a special app - not even a  browser.

→ Where are the UG PDFs located?

→ How to get them in another language (my installation is English International). Using the URL https://helpx.adobe.com/de/framemaker/help/help-resources.html provides the English version for FM-17...

→ Where to find older items: FM-15 (2019), FM-16 (2020), and also the newst one in GERMAN?

Any help is welcome!

Hi Klaus,

On the page which you list in your post there is a heading Offline-Hilfe-Handbücher. There is the PDF file of FM 2022.

I think that the old PDF files are not available on the Adobe website. Next week I can check, if I have PDFs of older FrameMaker versions.

Best regards

Winfried

Hi Klaus:

I happen to have these pdfs stored. In English, though and not in German. You can email or message me directly if you would like me to send you links to download them.

Actually, it looks like they are all listed here:

Except for 2022, but that link is shown here:

https://helpx.adobe.com/framemaker/help/help-resources.html

This is all English, though.

Thanks, Barb.

With this info I could find https://helpx.adobe.com/ch_de/framemaker/archive.html with the German versions. The links point to (for example) https://help.adobe.com/de_DE/framemaker/2020/using/framemaker_help.pdf which is what Bernd reported...
