Hi Alison,

FrameMaker creates PDF files via Save As PDF with its own engine.
The printer is not involved. This works very well.

There can be requirements that you create the PDF via Distiller, but this is
also automated. You can still use Save As PDF.

You do not need to print to a PostScript file.
SetPrint cannot be installed (FM 2020 is 64 bit) and is not needed.
There isn't any headless Distiller in FM 2020.

Best regards

Winfried

Thanks 

And I take it from your reply that the SetPrint issue still exists but
SetPrint hasn't (yet?) been updated to handle Frame 2020...

In that case, you don't need to worry - there's an entirely new PDF
generator in FM2020 & SetPrint won't work with FM2020 anymore.

It's the latest version.

I'm sure I saw "2020" in the download title although I wasn't aware that a
2020 version was available (it's a subscription through an affiliated office
in Austria).

Subject: [Framers] Basic Questions on Installing FrameMaker

I haven't used Frame since mid-2017 but I'm about to install it for my
current job.

I seem to remember that there were some issues using unstructured FrameMaker
with the built-in (headless distiller?) PDF tool such that a certain
checkbox had to be selected at install and Frame and Acrobat had to be
installed in a particular order (I've had Acrobat installed for the last 3
years so I need to know if that will cause issues).

I also remember a tiny (free?) tool called something like "Set_Print". Does
that still exist and is it still necessary?

It feels weird to be a Frame newby after using it for 9 years in my last
job.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Alison
