Footnote separator line solution
Dear Elchanan: This is an unusual fault from the Adobe side, that is. I have found that the footnote pgf has to remain the same, i.e. you cannot have zzfootnote. If you do not follow this dictat, sometimes the separator line is there and then sometimes it's not no matter what you do in the document footnote setting. Cntrl l will sometimes repair the page you are on, but that repair is not permanent. Best to go with the given footnote pgf, which you can then adjust as to how you want it changed in the para designer.

RE: FM 8: Lost my footnote separator line

Thanks, Elchanan From: Elchanan [mailto:elcha...@pathofhealth.org] snip I'm setting up a chapter template for a book. I changed the default paratag for footnotes from Footnote to ZZ_Footnote, renaming the tag (Paragraph Designer) and making the corresponding change in the Footnote Properties (Format Document footnote Properties). The moment I make that change, the line disappears. Can anyone suggest how I might keep the renamed paratag and retrieve the lost footnote separator? The separator line and spacing come from a reference page frame named Footnote. FM automagically puts it above the first Footnote pgf on the page (it's not specified as a Frame Above Pgf in Paragraph Designer). There's another ref page frame named TableFootnote that serves the same purpose for the TableFootnote pgf. If you change the name of the footnote and table footnote pgfs in Footnote Properties, you have to change the names of the corresponding ref page frames to match. Right-click the frame, select Object Properties, and change the name in the Object Properties dialog box. For years, I've been using zFootnote and zTableFootnote as the names of both the paragraphs and the corresponding reference page frames. Works like a charm. Richard G.

Adding structured files into a book yields the wrong order in the structure
Dear Framers, I've been having a problem with adding FrameMaker structured documents into a structured book, and I wonder if any of you guys have experienced the same or similar effect. FWIW, I'm using FrameMaker 10, running on Windows7 - both with the latest patches installed. If I select a range of documents in an explorer window, and drag the documents inside the book file, I appear to be able to get the whole structure of the document messed up. I've attached a screenshot of the effect - where I dragged the files to be after the ENR_3_3_en.fm document, and before the ENR_3_4_en.fm document. The book file appears to have the documents in the correct order ENR_3_3_en.fm, followed by ENR_3_3_1_en.fm, ENR_3_3_2_en.fm, ENR_3_3_3_en.fm, etc. but the structure view shows that they are located /after/ the ENR_3_5_en.fm document! It gets even stranger when I noticed that the ENR_3_4_en.fm, ENR_3_5_en.fm, and ENR_3_6_en.fm - which /were/ in the correct order /before /the drag-drop function, are somehow reversed. If I try rearranging some of the files in the structure view window, I have seen FrameMaker crash a few times. I managed to add the files in the correct order by: a. move the insertion pointer in the structure view b. select the FrameMaker Add > Files... menu item c. In the "Add Files to book" dialog, with the "details" being shown: reserve the Name sort order in the Windows dialog, so it shows Z - A ordering d. select the second file in the reversed order [e.g. the "y" file] e. shift-select the last file in the reversed order [e.g. the "a" file] f. control-select the first file in the reversed order [e.g. the "z" file] ... but even with this, I found that FrameMaker added the files into the book 2 elements /after/ where I had moved the insertion pointer. Has anyone else observed these behaviours before? // Simon BUCH -- M-AIS // [still working with FrameMaker after all these years] -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Keyboard shortcuts causing crash on FM appserver installation
Not sure you'll get much help with this one as I'm pretty sure FM isn't supported on a W2K8 server... From: framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Mike Thorn Sent: July-22-13 10:46 AM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Keyboard shortcuts causing crash on FM appserver installation Hi, all. A new FrameMaker 11 installation on a Citrix application server crashes instantly when I press F8 or F9, as well as the alternate Ctrl+8/Ctrl+9 shortcuts. It's the regular FrameMaker "serious problem" message, showing internal error codes 11024, 23327044, 26070837. OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard FM: 11.0.2.384 Frame 9 on the same appserver never had a shortcut problem, and FM 11 on my Windows 7 laptop is fine. Any clues?

going to SalesForce Knowledge via .csv?
