Upgrade from FrameMaker 10 to FrameMaker 17

Hi Justine:

Where is the think black line appearing? Can you share a screen shot?

I suspect that Ian is on the right track with object styles either causing the issue or fixing it (or both). An object style is a style for objects—like paragraph styles control the look of a paragraph and character styles control the formatting text within a paragraph—object styles allow you to control the look of multiple frames (and other objects) through Graphics > Object Style Designer. They are a little clunky to work with, so if you need a hand straightening them out, let us know.

I wonder if this could be a problem with an object style? A newer feature that wasn't present in FM0 is the ability to create Object Styles. If the default object style has, for some unknown reason, set a border on your imported graphics, it may be possible to correct that by updating the object style. That a guess, but if it is correct you would only need to fix it in one file then simply import the formats from that file into all affected documents.

1. Use File > Import > Formats.
2. In the Import Formats dialog check the Object Styles option before Import.

Did you apply all the patches first before converting the files?
