problems with JPG ICCprofile

[Wim Hooghwinkel - idtp]

Hi all,
 
(FrameMaker 8.0p277, Windows XP) 
I have some documents for a client. The linked illustrations are JPG files,
photographs saved with ICC profile Adobe RGB (1998). When I scroll through
the document, FM crashes on the display of the illustration. Resaving the
JPG without ICCprofile solves the problem.
 
Anyone knows why this is - or a workaround without resaving the JPG?
 
thanks,

 In the [Preferences] section of your maker.ini file add:
 
 DontShowWelcomeScreen=on




So RJ, for those of us who are not new users and don't like the welcome
screen, is there some way (say in the maker.ini) we can turn it off?

Converting Framemaker to PDF Heading 1 in a table

[bruce . macarthur]

Hello Fellow Framers,

I created a document that has a cover page with the Heading 1 in a table. 
I did this because the text is white with a black background. When I 
convert the document to PDF the bookmark for the Heading 1 ends up at the 
bottom of the bookmarks. If I take the Heading 1 and place it above the 
Heading 2 in the main part of the document, it comes out at the top of the 
bookmarks. Is there something that can force the Heading 1 in the table to 
be scanned first?

Thumbs down: FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

In my opinion, this is the single best improvement in the new FrameMaker

eleventy chapters I've opened in front of it, and if I have multiple
books open, they are managed separately from the chapters I've opened
from them.  I can even arrange it so the books are tabs in a single
panel or so I can see them all at the same time, whichever way I want to
work.  It makes FrameMaker much like an IDE for writing.

BTW, the book area can be collapsed and will stay collapsed, addressing
your concern with how much space it takes -- your books then fly out
from an unobjectionable icon strip.  I have been playing with this mode,
and I like it quite a bit.  Of course, if you don't like the books on
the left, you can put them somewhere else, such as on the right, on the
bottom, or even in a tabbed strip across the top.  It is a frankly
brilliant design and long overdue.

Of course, if you want it to work the old way, that is simple too -- you
can tear the books off and position them as you like.  They do float
over your other documents, which is a change, but wonder of wonders, you
can put them on your second display now!  That is an absolute usability
improvement -- FrameMaker has finally moved into the '90s.

The welcome screen?  In an ordinary day I would see it for about five
seconds.  I don't see any way to turn it off, but I also don't see any
reason to.

I haven't done a major project in FrameMaker 9 yet, but so far the
changes I've seen are all obvious improvements that will make working in
FrameMaker much less frustrating.  Now if only they'd get some
inheritance going with their document model, I'd be in heaven.

Does anyone know how to set up an HTML web page so that there is one narrow

Sorry to bug you with this, but I just can't figure it out.

Re: Thumbs down: FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[Diane Gaskill]

Well, to each his own, I guess.  When I save things, I expect them to stay 
where I put them and not return to the default position.  Further, when I 
upgrade software, I expect that the xy parameters of the file window would be 
preserved.  I should not have to reset them, but this did not happen in FM9, 
even when I made changes and saved. But they did in FM8.  Am I seeing a bug 
here?

My book files are never buried behind any chapters. I keep my FM area organized 
so that this does not happen.  A litle extra work at the beginning but it saves 
time later.

PDF create with FMbatch fails --doh!

[Reid Gray]

Hello Framers,

We build our books here with FMbatch on a --you guessed it-- Solaris machine.

We check them out of source control and build them automagically, but as you 
can see from the noise below a book I just created from scratch on my Windows 
machine is not playing nice with FMbatch.

Earlier I had an error on pg 18.  I saved the book as MIF (exported really).  
Then opened the MIF and saved as Frame 8 to dispell the demons as it were.

So, it looks like the bad behavior has moved to p 3, which is kind of a good 
thing.  --I guess Adobe must build its books in reverse.  Anyhow, if you have 
any ideas what might be plaguing me here please give a shout.  I'm going home.

Reid
