Hi, Our translation agency uses Trados, which cannot handle FM 8 files yet. Therefore I converted everything to FM 7 MIF files (new option in Save As). When I got the files back, I noticed that the dashes which I defined in the paragraph numbering to mark the list items are exchanged by: '?? In FM 7 in the paragraph designer I had: \t\=\t (it's a second level list). In the FM 8 binary file this was changed to: \t-\t In the file the dash is displayed correctly. When I open a MIF 7.0 file this was changed to: \t'??\t (paragraph designer) In the FM file of this MIF 7.0 file the numbering is displayed as: square??tab (the square is here a character which FM cannot display)
We use Univers (non-Unicode). And that's probably the reason. But still FM should not convert the dash. This is no problem with MIF 8.0 files. FM 8 opened also FM 7 binary files with this list numbering correctly. Best regards Winfried
