Re: [Framers] Save to PDF - Minutes turned into hours
Way back when, on FM 6, we also had problems with "Save to PDF". Adobe recommended saving as a PostScript file, then saving that as a PDF. -Original Message- From: Framers On Behalf Of Tom Beiswenger Sent: Monday, June 13, 2022 12:26 PM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. Subject: Re: [Framers] Save to PDF - Minutes turned into hours Our company also is still using FM12. All was well until everyone was upgraded to Windows 10 and the company wasn't willing to pay the subscription price for upgrading FM from a 32 bit app to 64 bit. Save to PDF was broken. After attempting to save two large books to PDF and ended up one "no file" and one that worked, I discovered that if I created a little dummy book (a 3-4 page) FM book and always did a save as PDF on it before doing the same with a real book, the save as PDF worked. That was several years ago. I only have to run the dummy book once during an FM session. Not sure why it works, but it does. Tom Beiswenger Mgr.

We're still using FM12. It does not matter if we're working on the network or local HDD. We know the IT group changed virus protection from Sophos to Windows Security and we've disabled everything we can. I'm not sure if that is related or if there could have been a Windows update that has affected this version of FM. We've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Any suggestions?

Re: [Framers] Finding inserted and deleted text
So, a follow-up question. There appears to be a Track Changes toolbar defined in FM11. I would like to be able to use it. The maker.ini file says, ToolBarXMLFile=fminit\workspaces\unstructured\toolbars\fmtoolbar.xml and my local maker.ini does not override the ToolBarXMLFile preference. fmtoolbar.xml contains: The contents of fmtoolbar.xml is the same in fminit\... and in AppData\... . As one of my many efforts to be able to access the Track Changes toolbar, I moved "structured.xml" to the end of the list. I also tried removing it altogether. Sadly, when I go to the main menu and click Windows|Toolbars, the only options I have are "Graphics Toolbar" and "Quick Access Bar". Is there a way to enable the Track Changes toolbar?

[Framers] FM 11 / FM 14 compatibility
After 5 years of using Word, I get to use FrameMaker again! My colleagues are using FM 11, but the IT folks just gave me a link and license for FM 14. Can I save my work (FM 14) in .fm and .book files that my colleagues can use (FM 11)?
