RE: Publishing a Frame book on the Amazon Kindle

2009-05-08 Thread RJ Jacquez
Hi Tina, earlier this week during STC in Atlanta, Tom Aldous from 
www.intech.com was showing me how he was able to convert a FrameMaker book into 
XHTML files using RoboHelp 8, and then through a script was able to package it 
for the Kindle, and it looked really good on the device.

I'm not sure if Tom is on this list, but in case he isn't, I'm including him in 
this email, so that he may either provide more info to this list, or please 
feel free to contact him directly.

Subject: Publishing a Frame book on the Amazon Kindle

Does anyone have experience with publishing a print book created in Frame
for the Amazon Kindle? From what I've managed to figure out from the web,
the output is HTML, and there are a lot of dos and don'ts available from
Amazon. None of these, of course, refer to specific software that a book
might be created in. It seems as if most of the traditional publishing world
(big publishers like Random House, Harper, and so on) use InDesign, not
FrameMaker.

 

If anyone has tips or a useful site, please point me in that direction.
Thanks.

Publishing a Frame book on the Amazon Kindle

2009-05-08 Thread Art Campbell
I may not be fully understanding the question, but because the
deliverable format is HTML or HTML-based
(http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200140600),
 why would it matter what the authoring platform was, so long as it
output clean HTML (or one of the other formats)? The whole idea behind
HTML and format-independent structured formats is to remove the
authoring platform as a factor from the end product.

I'd expect an HTML book from Frame using either native filters,
MIF3Go, or another third-party filter to work as well as any other
product from any other source tool. I've never had a problem
integrating Frame-sourced HTML into a web page...

RE: Shades of grey in Frame

2009-05-08 Thread Owen, Clint
Lea,

Do you have a PDF copy of the original version, in which the graphics
look OK? If so, then you can use PDF as your graphic format and probably
retain the original quality. Just extract each page with a graphic on it
and crop as necessary to get the correct size.

We have to do this with old manuals when the original graphics are lost.

Hi,

 

I started with FM7, creating a user's manual for our equipment. I
dutifully imported the graphics by reference, using JPEG images (I
didn't know any better back then). Still, the output fit my needs, and
it worked fine.

 

Now I've upgraded to FM8, and those same graphics have 'aged' in a very
strange way. The printed output now has a grey patina overlaying the
imported graphic. I hesitate to try PNG because the truly ancient
software I used then doesn't list it as an option, and I'd have to
export as BMP, convert to PNG and go from there. Does anyone have any
matching experience?
Is there a fix other than recreating the graphics in a more
Frame-friendly format?

Conference: Technical Communication UK, 2009

2009-05-08 Thread Martin Ley
Hi folks,

As a Fellow of the ISTC in the UK, I have been asked to help out with  
promoting our conference this year (Technical Communication UK). Apart  
from more traditional marketing routes, we're dragging ourselves  
kicking and screaming into the 21st century by aiming to get exposure  
on Facebook and Twitter (@tcuk_conf) to name but two. I'm also  
contacting groups that are appropriate to myself and other tech comms  
specialists (I'm a Framemaker and InDesign user).

If you're interested, please take a look at the conference web site,  
sign up to the newsletter or register:

http://www.technicalcommunicationuk.com/

While the conference is primarily aimed at UK/European delegates,  
anyone is welcome to attend.

Best regards,

Martin Ley

Add information to registry ?

2009-05-08 Thread Jo Watkiss
Hi Framers,

Every time I open FrameMaker I get a message 'Are you sure you want to
add the information in C:\Documents and Settings\jowatkiss\Local
Settings\Temp\frmreg.reg to the registry?'

This has only started very recently, and I can't tie it in to any
software updates.

I'm not sure if this is indicative of a problem - and should I be
selecting Yes or No?

I'm still using FrameMaker 6 (although have 9 installed also), on Win XP
Professional, SP3.

Thanks for any advice,
Jo Watkiss

Re: Add information to registry ?

2009-05-08 Thread Les Smalley
Jo -

Do you get this message when starting FM 6, FM 9 or both?  Have you looked at 
the contents of the fmreg.reg file (it's really just a text file so you can 
open it in notepad or similar editor) to see what it is trying to add?

Typically, these sort of files update the registry to associate file types with 
applications, etc.   It may be because you loaded FM 9 and the install process 
didn't delete its temporary files - did this message start to appear after the 
FM 9 install?
