RE: Round-tripping Chinese XML
Hi Wei Jiang, We are investigating whether or not it is possible to exchange XML files with our translators and take on the formatting in FrameMaker ourselves. Our translators currently convert our FrameMaker files to MIF and run it through their translation software. They then take the result and enter it back into FrameMaker where they finalise the formatting. We have not localized our OS for Simplified Chinese and are hoping for a solution that will help us avoid this.

Image Scaling in FM9
Hello Framers, Quick question about a difference my co-workers and I found between FrameMaker 8.0 and FrameMaker 9.0. We have a PNG image that is 4.5 wide and has a resolution of 300 dpi. When we import this image into FrameMaker 8.0, it automatically detects the resolution and sets the scaling to 100%. FrameMaker 9.0, however, does not detect the resolution and automatically sets the scaling to 24% when we tell it the resolution is 300 dpi. We want the image to display at 100% of its original size. Why does FrameMaker 9.0 say the size is 24%? Regards, Morgan Hayward ___ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com. Send list messages to fram...@lists.frameusers.com.

RE: FM8 crashes
Hi Charlie, We had a similar problem directly related to Microsoft Office software. The longer we worked with FM8 in a single session, the higher the likelihood that opening an e-mail through Outlook, opening/creating a Word document, or opening/creating an Excel document would cause FM8 to crash. According to Adobe technical support, FM8 creates a series of temporary files in your Temp folder and then deletes them once you close your session. If you don't have a lot of RAM or have a slow processor, doing anything with Microsoft Office like what I've described will cause it to crash because there isn't enough space in the Temp folder. You can either make sure your Temp folder is completely empty before every time you start FrameMaker (won't stop the crashes completely), only use FM8 when all Microsoft Office applications are closed, or upgrade your PC. I recently upgraded to a dual core 3.0 GHz processor with 2.0 GB of RAM and haven't experienced a crash since. My co-workers however are still suffering and see maybe 14 crashes a day. Hope this helps. Regards, Morgan _ Morgan Hayward Technical Writer Husky Injection Molding Systems Ltd.

RE: Question for the experts - a problem in Acrobat 3D that is not aproblem in Acrobat 8 Pro
Hi Diane, If you're unable to find a solution in Acrobat 3D and your documents are structured, you can create a special master page for your front cover and then apply it automatically based on a context label applied by your EDD. We use this to apply a DRAFT watermark to our documents before they are saved as PDF, thus avoid any hassles with Acrobat. All you need to do is the following: 1. In your EDD, create an attribute at the root of your title page with values that represent the different stages. We use Draft and Released, for instance. 2. Under the definition for your title/heading element, create a rule that applies a special context label to the element when that new attribute has a specific value. 3. Now go into your template, create a new master page (typically a copy of the page used for the title page), and drop your watermark image or text on the background layer. 4. Switch to the reference pages and tell FrameMaker to use the new master page whenever the title element has that new context label. This is done in the StructMasterPageMaps table. Once you've done this, all you need to do is set the attribute value in your document, apply the master pages (this can be scripted), and print your document to PDF. In the end, this solution will add an extra step to the FrameMaker side of your process, but it will free you from the extra steps you're taking (or trying to take) with Acrobat.

Hi Diane, If you're unable to find a solution in Acrobat 3D and your documents are structured, you can create a special master page for your front cover and then apply it automatically based on a context label applied by your EDD.

MS Office crashes FM8?
I'm working with FrameMaker 8.0p273 (unable to download the latest patch until Adobe puts it on their website) on Windows XP SP2 and noticing that FM8 frequently crashes when I'm working with a Microsoft Office application at the same time. It crashes when Outlook looks for new e-mail, when I open an Excel file, or when I'm in the middle of working with a Word document. It's not an instant thing though. I can sometimes be working with FrameMaker and a MSO app for a good 1/2 hour before FM8 finally crashes, but it inevitably happens. Is anyone else experiencing this problem or have any suggestions?

Rules disappearing from EDD
Hi everyone, I have the most fantastic and bizarre bug for you all. We're working with structured FrameMaker 7.1 on WinXP systems and finding that select ParagraphFormatting rules are being replaced with the NoAdditionalFormatting element when we import our EDD into a document. This is happening when we define a combined font for Asian translations. However, it doesn't stop there. When we archive the document using the Archive plug-in OR copy the file on the network to another folder (independent of FrameMaker), the ParagraphFormatting rules for Cyrillic, Baltic and Central European translations are replaced by the NoAdditionalFormatting element too. What it should be Else, if context is: * Chapter [Language = ChineseSimplified] Default font properties Combined font: ChineseSim_MyriadProCond_FZDHTK Else, if context is: * Chapter [Language = Russian] Default font properties Family: Myriad Pro Cond Cyr What we end up with Else, if context is: * Chapter [Language = ChineseSimplified] No additional formatting. Else, if context is: * Chapter [Language = Russian] No additional formatting. This has been repeated on all computers in the department and we've even replicated it using FrameMaker 8, which we have moved over to yet. Does anyone know what might be causing this problem? I would be happy with a wild guess at this point. Thanks, Morgan _ Morgan Hayward Technical Writer Husky Injection Molding Systems Ltd.

Greek Alphanumeric List
Hi Framers, One of our translators wants to manually convert autonumber characters in an alphanumeric list (a, b, c, etc.) from English to Greek for every alphanumeric list in our document. Does anyone know how to change the characters to Greek through the EDD? We're currently using FrameMaker 7.1 on Windows XP.
