RE: URGENT: Need help in using fonts in FrameMaker
Dear Keerthi, As far as I know, FrameMaker 7 is not Unicode-enabled. Try turning on support for each language in Control Panel of your OS, or try upgrading to FrameMaker 8 or higher.

RE: Frame 10 save to Frame 8 files
If you expect it to be reopened and used in 10 again, you should test to see what a save in 8 does to the 10 data. If could either preserve it or delete it because it doesn't recognize it... so 10 features may be wiped. Those features will be lost. FM8 will filter out unknown elements when you open FM10-generated MIF. The elements being ignored are listed in the console window. I believe this is consistent behavior across all FM versions.

And a sample ExtendScript that's supposed to ship with 10 is supposed to do the same thing. So you save to MIF 10, and when it's opened in 8, 8 ignores whatever it doesn't understand.

If your target version is FrameMaker 5, 6, or 7 use MIF7. If your target version is FrameMaker 8 or later, be sure to use MIF10. Background: The text encoding changed with the introduction of Unicode and you risk losing some characters if you save as MIF7 when you want to continue with FrameMaker 8 or newer. - Michael ___ You are currently subscribed to framers as art.campb...@gmail.com.

URGENT: Need help in using fonts in FrameMaker
For Russian, you need to have the font Arial CYR installed. Times new Roman CYR and a few other fonts are also available. I remember downloading these from Microsoft. The Arial font is in a file called arial32.exe. I have published several books in Russian with FM6 and FM7 without problems. I also got the Simsun font to show Chinese characters nicely for FM6, but don?t remember exactly how I did this. But I found an old e-mail saying: You don't specify which version of FrameMaker you're using, > but, at least for versions 7.2 and earlier, you need to set > the operating system's language for non-Unicode programs to > an appropriate value to successfully use Far Eastern > languages in dialog boxes. > > 1.
