Hi,

I am using Mif2Go to produce Standard HTML output. I have these settings:

[Graphics]
UseGraphicPreviews=Yes
UseOriginalGraphicNames=Yes

[Automation]
CopyGraphicsFrom=.\images
GraphCopyFiles=*.png *.jpg *.gif

Does Mif2Go copy ALL of the images indicated by the [Automation] keys, or
just the images in use in the book that I am converting? It looks like it
copies all of them. Is there a way to have it just copy the images in use in
the book it is converting? Thanks.

Yes, it does.  That's the old, original method.

Yes, added a couple of versions ago.  See User's
Guide par. 35.7.1, Copying referenced graphics to 
a distribution directory.

[Automation]
; CopyOriginalGraphics = No (default) or Yes (copy

Make sure you turn off the older method, with
GraphCopyFiles=No, or you will still get all the
filetypes specified from the project dir and from
CopyGraphicsFrom.

Try:

or use the Alt key combinations to activate the menu commands:

RE: Shortcut keys for rotate clockwise/counter-clockwise

Oh, I see the confusion. Okay, I have an 8.5 x 11 book, so all the pages are 
the same size. For this appendix, the first couple of pages and the last page 
are normal portrait. The tables in between these pages are rotated so that the 
top is always at the left and the bottom is always at the right, but the header 
and footer are still at the top and bottom edges (short sides of the page). The 
master pages are applied by a structured master page map which triggers on an 
attribute value.

If there is a quick, easily reversible way to rotate all the pages so I can 
edit them, then rotate them all back, I'd be okay with that too. They are 
contiguous. But I tried selecting all the pages and it only lets me highlight 
one at a time. Maybe messing with the master page is the best option?

Re: Shortcut keys for rotate clockwise/counter-clockwise

2013-10-15 Thread Dave Reynolds

Hi Fei Min

Have you thought of setting up a custom keyboard shortcut so you
can assign the 'Rotate Page Clockwise' command to a particular
key combination, or a single function key? I use custom keyboard
shortcuts all the time to avoid going through levels of menus.
I'm using Frame 8, but I presume this will work for Frame 10. If
you want to try this, let me know and I can tell you how to do
it.

Cheers

Dave

RE: Differences in screen fonts not appearing in printed or pdf

Rod, there are two or three main places where things can go wrong:

1. When you create the PDF, you need to make sure that you are embedding the 
fonts inside it. 
This is controlled by the Adobe Distiller settings - there's a check box on one 
of the dialogs that says something like Embed all fonts and cancel the PDF 
creation if this fails.  (If you don't do this, the PDF just contains the 
*name* of the font, and when its viewed or printed on any given device, it just 
asks the device politely if that font is available). 

2. Your PDF viewer (eg. Adobe Acrobat) - there is usually a setting buried in 
there somewhere which forces it to use the fonts embedded in the PDF itself 
(rather than a font which may be installed on the PC you're viewing it on). 
Make sure that's set right. 

3. When you print your PDF onto paper, you need to make sure your printer 
driver for that printer is set to download the fonts from your computer, rather 
than just use its own fonts. (Some printers have fonts stored in their own 
local memory). There'll be a setting in the printer diver settings called 
Download as Softfont or something like that. Make sure that's selected.

Hopefully that should sort it.

Hi guys,

 

I have written a book, an experimental academic novel,  in Framemaker
10.0.2.419 which has three frames per page and in each I use a slightly 
different font and want to preserve that.

 

The three fonts I am using are:

 

Garamond Opentype

Adobe Garamond Pro Opentype

Bembo Truetype

 

On the screen these three fonts are clearly identifiable as different to one 
another.

 

When I:

 

a.   save to pdf and view on the screen; or

b.  print to my printer from the pdf; or

c.   print to my printer from the native FM files 

 

the difference in fonts becomes minimal to the extent that I cannot tell them 
apart.

 

I am thinking that it is not a printer driver issue because of the pdf 
experience.

 

My OS is Windows 8

My Printer is a Brother HL-2270DW series bw laser printer 

 

Any hints/clues/advice/help would be appreciated.

 

If there is another alternative series of three fonts that are very close but 
visibly subtly different anyone can suggest I would also appreciate such advice.

 

The reason I am wanting to use different fonts is that in the final chapter of 
the work, the fonts are nixed depending on which of the three layers of 
narrative they  originate from and I want to make that clear to a discerning 
reader without making it look too varied and ruin the reading flow.

 

Kind regards,

Interesting problem. 

The use of two Garamond fonts from different found arises will no necessarily 
produce discernibly different characters. A totally different don't family 
should be used instead of two Garamond fonts.

I have noticed that on Windows, font representation accuracy diminishes when 
viewing at less than 100%. I've noted that characters lose definition unless 
viewed at 120% magnification. 

That seems to be part and parcel of the Windows font management code under high 
resolution screen viewing.

no longer have access to the program, and buying version 11 is a bit too
expensive for me. Any hints?

How to purge unwanted fonts from Reference Pages?

Folks,
I am maintaining an old legacy document that's giving me grief at the moment.
(I'm using Frame11 - I think the document was created years ago on - gasp - an 
Apple Mac).

PDF creation is failing, because I've told it to cancel the job if font 
embedding fails, and there's fonts referenced in the doc that aren't available 
on my system.

It is a real sneaky one, because even if I turn *off* remember missing font 
names, open the doc, save, close the fonts are still there!
Turns out they're not used in any paragraph or character style in Body page 
text flow ... nor embedded in any EPS graphic...
I've tracked them down to the *reference* pages.
There's a whole bunch of mapping tables and other gubbins on there (I'm not 
entirely sure what they're for!), but the text in them all is Times Roman.

I've solved things like this in the past by saving as MIF, opening in WordPad, 
and manually changing the font names,
but this doesn't seem feasible here, partly because there's dozens of instances 
of the name in the MIF, and also because the name of the font and font family 
and big long strings (2 or 3 different ones) so it's not so easy to just 
globally find and replace them.

Any tips for dealing with this?
Is there any command in the Frame GUI than I'm missing that could clear this up?
The best solution I have at the moment is going into each chapter file's 
reference pages (there's about 10 in each) and selecting all this Time Roman 
text and manually setting it to a different font - but even that seems rather 
cumbersome.

cheers
David

I remember having trouble trying to figure out how to edit a landscape

built it with a landscape page but rotated the header/footer.

Yes, added a couple of versions ago.  See User's

a distribution directory".

[Automation]

Make sure you turn off the older method, with

Shortcut keys for rotate clockwise/counter-clockwise

I'm using FrameMaker 10 on Windows 7. I have a lot of "sideways" pages that I 
have to rotate 90 degrees to be able to edit, and I'm getting tired of going 
Format > Customize > Rotate Page Clockwise. I've checked the Help and the 
FrameMaker forum, and just a plain Google search. I can't find the shortcut 
keys for these menu items. Can anyone tell me what they are?

Shortcut keys for rotate clockwise/counter-clockwise

I did. So they're showing up sideways, but I can't edit them that way. Do you 
mean unrotate the master pages and apply them temporarily so I can edit?

Instead of manually rotating pages, you should define a rotated master page.

Try:

Esc pO rotate page clockwise
Esc pU unrotate page

or use the Alt key combinations to activate the menu commands:

Alt + O, u, r
Alt + O, u, u

Shortcut keys for rotate clockwise/counter-clockwise

Oh, I see the confusion. Okay, I have an 8.5 x 11 book, so all the pages are 
the same size. For this appendix, the first couple of pages and the last page 
are normal portrait. The tables in between these pages are rotated so that the 
top is always at the left and the bottom is always at the right, but the header 
and footer are still at the top and bottom edges (short sides of the page). The 
master pages are applied by a structured master page map which triggers on an 
attribute value.

If there is a quick, easily reversible way to rotate all the pages so I can 
edit them, then rotate them all back, I'd be okay with that too. They are 
contiguous. But I tried selecting all the pages and it only lets me highlight 
one at a time. Maybe messing with the master page is the best option?

Differences in screen fonts not appearing in printed or pdf

Rod, there are two or three main places where things can go wrong:

1. When you create the PDF, you need to make sure that you are embedding the 
fonts inside it. 
This is controlled by the Adobe Distiller settings - there's a check box on one 
of the dialogs that says something like "Embed all fonts and cancel the PDF 
creation if this fails".  (If you don't do this, the PDF just contains the 
*name* of the font, and when its viewed or printed on any given device, it just 
asks the device politely if that font is available). 

2. Your PDF viewer (eg. Adobe Acrobat) - there is usually a setting buried in 
there somewhere which forces it to use the fonts embedded in the PDF itself 
(rather than a font which may be installed on the PC you're viewing it on). 
Make sure that's set right. 

3. When you print your PDF onto paper, you need to make sure your printer 
driver for that printer is set to download the fonts from your computer, rather 
than just use its own fonts. (Some printers have fonts stored in their own 
local memory). There'll be a setting in the printer diver settings called 
"Download as Softfont" or something like that. Make sure that's selected.

Hopefully that should sort it.

Hi guys,

I have written a book, an experimental academic novel,  in Framemaker
10.0.2.419 which has three frames per page and in each I use a slightly 
different font and want to preserve that.

The three fonts I am using are:

Garamond Opentype

Adobe Garamond Pro Opentype

Bembo Truetype

On the screen these three fonts are clearly identifiable as different to one 
another.

When I:

a.   save to pdf and view on the screen; or

b.  print to my printer from the pdf; or

c.   print to my printer from the native FM files 

the difference in fonts becomes minimal to the extent that I cannot tell them 
apart.

I am thinking that it is not a printer driver issue because of the pdf 
experience.

My OS is Windows 8

My Printer is a Brother HL-2270DW series b laser printer 

Any hints/clues/advice/help would be appreciated.

If there is another alternative series of three fonts that are very close but 
visibly subtly different anyone can suggest I would also appreciate such advice.

The reason I am wanting to use different fonts is that in the final chapter of 
the work, the fonts are nixed depending on which of the three layers of 
narrative they  originate from and I want to make that clear to a discerning 
reader without making it look too varied and ruin the reading flow.

Kind regards,

Rod Fee

Interesting problem. 

The use of two Garamond fonts from different found arises will no necessarily 
produce discernibly different characters. A totally different don't family 
should be used instead of two Garamond fonts.

I have noticed that on Windows, font representation accuracy diminishes when 
viewing at less than 100%. I've noted that characters lose definition unless 
viewed at 120% magnification. 

That seems to be part and parcel of the Windows font management code under high 
resolution screen viewing.

buying FrameMaker

2013-10-15 Thread Anita Legsdin

Is it at all possible to still buy FrameMaker 10 somewhere? I'm retired and
no longer have access to the program, and buying version 11 is a bit too
expensive for me. Any hints?

How to purge unwanted fonts from Reference Pages?

Folks,
I am maintaining an old legacy document that's giving me grief at the moment.
(I'm using Frame11 - I think the document was created years ago on - gasp - an
Apple Mac).

PDF creation is failing, because I've told it to cancel the job if font
embedding fails, and there's fonts referenced in the doc that aren't available
on my system.

It is a real sneaky one, because even if I turn *off* "remember missing font
names", open the doc, save, close the fonts are still there!
Turns out they're not used in any paragraph or character style in Body page
text flow ... nor embedded in any EPS graphic...
I've tracked them down to the *reference* pages.
There's a whole bunch of "mapping tables" and other gubbins on there (I'm not
entirely sure what they're for!), but the text in them all is Times Roman.

I've solved things like this in the past by saving as MIF, opening in WordPad,
and manually changing the font names,
but this doesn't seem feasible here, partly because there's dozens of instances
of the name in the MIF, and also because the name of the font and font family
and big long strings (2 or 3 different ones) so it's not so easy to just
globally "find and replace" them.

Any tips for dealing with this?
Is there any command in the Frame GUI than I'm missing that could clear this up?
The best solution I have at the moment is going into each chapter file's
reference pages (there's about 10 in each) and selecting all this Time Roman
text and manually setting it to a different font - but even that seems rather
cumbersome.

cheers
David

I remember having trouble trying to figure out how to edit a landscape 
page in a portrait document. The first time I built it, I started with a 
portrait master page and could not edit the page. The second time I 
built it with a landscape page but rotated the header/footer.
