Yup something sounds wrong - I still run FM12 here at work & it doesn't behave anything like that.
Was it installed as an Admin? Are the files all local? Do you have any plug-ins that you're running? Is there anything else running that could be sucking up processing power? You should be able to import a PDF into a .fm page as an image (from what I recall - I never do it). You won't be able to edit the text, but if that's ok, then it would work fine. ________________________________ From: Framers <framers-bounces+jeff.coatsworth=jonasclub....@lists.frameusers.com> on behalf of Theresa de Valence <t...@bstw.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2025 12:37 PM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com <framers@lists.frameusers.com> Subject: [Framers] What should I check? Hi folks, Frame 12 is installed on my Windows 10 Pro for Workstations v22H2 with 64GB RAM and 650GB free disk space. I've been a Frame user since the early 1990s, but am now mostly retired so I use Frame sporadically. Am still using it as my word processor. My main problem is that the program is very very slow to process each action I've chosen. With an empty document, it takes many seconds too long to switch to Master page. It takes 7 seconds to open a short document I wrote last week. I have lists of spices on hand which use different paragraph and character formats; it takes a long time to switch between formats. So I must have installed and set up Frame on this machine incorrectly. What should I investigate? Also, At the moment I'm trying to import a hand drawn road intersection with the idea that I can use Frame to annotate it. I scanned the drawing into pdf and have Acrobat XI version 11.0.23. Frame won't open the pdf. Acrobat will let me convert the pdf into JPEG, JPEG2000, TIFF or PNG. In Frame, I vaguely remember creating wallpaper with an image file, but not well enough to know what to do. Is one of those formats acceptable? Suggestions of what query to use to find out more would be appreciated. Over the years I have learned many, many helpful things from Frameusers list. I hope we have many more years of Frameusers. I've been reading this list so long I think of many of you as my friends. And, thanks for all the fish!
