? Dear Framers, ? I have taken the liberty?to modify the subject line slighly. ? I encountered the same problem over?four weeks ago and posted a message about it. My original message is attached. ? My problem started suddenly due to no fault of mine when?I wanted to edit already imported drawing or import a new Visio drawing into Frame. I know another writer in my company has the same problem. ? I have not found any solution?to it. Adobe has not been of any help at all. Their Tech Support simply is not of much help these days. They put you on hold or keep you bouncing back and forth to other departments. ? Dov Isaacs was kind enough to?try to help me. He told me that the problem could possibly be with the Window XP Service Pack?3?OLE subsystem. The problem is?not?many of us can get into Windows and examine the OLE subsystem.?Most IT departments would not even?peep into OLE or any individual Windows?components. They are always willing to reinstall windows by wiping out everything that you have on your system disk. ? I talked to my IT department. They suggested that?first I reinstall my FM 7.2 and Visio and if that does?not fix the problem,?reimage the system. Obviously, I am not in?favor of the second choice and reinstalling?the software did not spell any relief. ? I hope Adoble?is listening and offers some real solutions to this very ugly?problem that so many of us are facing. The problem is so severe that you are unable to save your document unless you delete the drawing!!! This is a cruel joke on Frame users. ? I do not know what is causing this problem (Windows XP, Visio, or Frame), but it is the responsibility of Adobe to investigate the issue and publish the solution and not leave the user on tinterhooks. ?

I am having difficulty saving a Frame 7.2 (unstructured) document after importing a Visio 2007 drawing into Frame. ? If I get rid of the drawing and use .jpg or some?other graphic format, the problem goes away, but I want to be a able to import the original Visio drawing in .vsd format and be able to edit by double-clicking on it and update the source file at the same time by using the link feature. (It does not work even without linking). I have been doing it for a long time, but I have never seen this problem before. ? I am using Import > Object > Create from File? and then use the browse button to get the file.? ? The file gets imported, but it cannot be saved. Any other changes to the documents after importing it cannot be saved either. ? Here is the error message: ? "An internal error occurred while writing importing graphic in this document. The file has been saved, but has lost some image data. Please report this error to Adobe Technical Support." ? The file simply cannot be saved as long as the?subject Visio drawing is in the document. It. You have to delete the imported file or choose "No" to "Save" before you can close the document. ? I have renamed the Frame as well as Visio file. It makes no difference. ? Can someone tell me what is causing it and how?to solve it? Any help in that matter would be greatly appreciated. ? Regards ? Tarlochan S. Nahal Sr. Technical Writer ? ? ? ? ? ? ? From: Tarlochan S.

Thanks for your quick response and tips. ? I am using Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3, FM 7.2, Vision 7. ? I assume if I?obtain FM8, this problem would not occur. ? The major automatic update was installed about two weeks ago when about 7 or so patches were installed. It gets updated almost every week. I am not sure when the SP3 was installed. ? I tried to import a pdf created from Visio and tried to link that object. The result is the same - I?cannot save the?document until I?purge the?drawing.? ? Is there a way?to import a pdf into FM and link it to?the source file so that any changes made to original Visio drawing can be pulled into FM automatically without creating another pdf? Or do I have to create a new pdf file every time I make a change to the source file? Regards ? Tarlochan S.

I haven't had the trouble since I upgraded to 8, but I've been mostly on other projects for the last little while. Take this advice in that light, if you wish. Try saving the Frame files as *.mif, and resaving them to *.fm. That worked for me. Good luck, Lea _________________________________ Lea Rush Software and Documentation Specialist Astoria-Pacific International PO Box 830 Clackamas OR 97015 PH: 800-657-3010 FAX: 503-655-7367 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Charlene_Glover at emainc.com Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2008 10:46 AM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Regarding Internal Message Good afternoon, I am making changes to a book in Framemaker, whenever I try to save the document I get the following error message: An internal error occurred while importing graphics in this document.

Although other problems can certainly trigger the error message too, as Lea points out. Do a search for OLE in the forum and you should turn up several threads on it, as well as some work arounds that people have contributed. If you don't use OLE objects, though, it's likely to be a network or permissions problem... Cheers, Art Art Campbell art.campbell at gmail.com "...

We just ecently updated to SP3 and though that was the culprit. It could have been but I went through the chapter that was causing the problem, checking all graphics. ? The writer had, without knowing, imported a graphic, by reference, and did not have the frame anchor selected. It looked like the graphic was there, but it wasn't. ? With View > Borders turned on, very carefully look at all imported graphics. You will find one, at least one, that doesn't quite look right. It will appear to have an extra frame within the frame anchor. An extra set of dotted lines. This graphic is in the document but not in the anchored frame. Delete what you see and reimport the graphic correctly. ? Problem _should_ go away. --- On Thu, 10/2/08, Charlene_Glover at emainc.com <Charlene_Glover at emainc.com> wrote: From: Charlene_Glover at emainc.com <[email protected]> Subject: Regarding Internal Message To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Date: Thursday, October 2, 2008, 12:46 PM Good afternoon, I am making changes to a book in Framemaker, whenever I try to save the document I get the following error message: An internal error occurred while importing graphics in this document.
