RE: Chinese Characters in User Variables
Hi Nate, 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. In Windows Control Panel, open the Regional and Language Options applet. 2. In the Regional and Language Options dialog, display the Advanced tab. 3. Select the language you want to work with, for example Chinese (PRC). 4. Restart the computer. If the language you want doesn't appear in the list you will need to add it using the Languages tab. This setting only applies to non-Unicode programs such as FrameMaker V7.2 and earlier.

RE: Omega symbol becomes W in pdf
Two things for you to check, Nancy: 1. Make sure you have the Windows Symbol font installed. This is used in some magic way by Distiller and it's abcense causes the sort of problem you are seeing. 2. In FrameMaker, check that your Symbol character tag uses the Windows Symbol font and NOT the Symbol Std font. Symbol Std is a private font installed by FrameMaker. HTH Phil Heron -Original Message- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Nancy Allison Sent: 17 March 2009 21:46 To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Omega symbol becomes W in pdf My document uses some special symbols, like the Omega. To create it, I type W and then apply a Symbol character tag, which applies the Symbol font. I've created PDFs from this file in two ways: ---Used Framemaker's Save as feature. ---Printed to .ps file and opened it in Acrobat Distiller. In this case, I've deselected Do not send fonts to printer. I believe this should assure that the Symbol font is sent to the printer. Either way, the Omega character is turned back into a W in the final PDF. This is also happening with the Symbol +/minus sign (the plus is directly over the minus) -- it is transformed into a plain minus sign. NOT GOOD. I'm sure this problem is as old as the hills, but I have Googled lots of phrases and have not found a good treatment of this subject. In the short term, I'm creating .gifs of the symbols and importing them into the text as graphics, but that is time-consuming and clumsy.

All set up by using specific headings to call the correct master pages. I set up the page and chapter numbering from the book and set up the Table of Contents from the Set up Table of Contents menu. Now a Documentation group is going to use my template. They are all new to Framemaker. Can I set up a dummy book that they just copy to their working directory? I see that I can rename files from within the book and get links working but I cannot rename the book file itself. Is there an easy way to get the book file renamed and get the generated files like TOC, Index and Glossary working without having to set them up from scratch again?

RE: Japanese FrameMaker
Paul, I have not seen V8 but the previous Windows versions do include the language versions you mention. However, the serial number provided when you buy the package only allows you to install the language purchased. If you want to install the Japanese version you will need a Japanese specific serial number. I would expect you could buy this from any territory. Note that if you only need access to the Japanese-specific features, not the Japanese UI, you can obtain these from the standard English language version. To do this on Windows XP, change the system setting Language for non-Unicode programs to Japanese. Ha - I've just realised that Frame 8 is, unlike previous versions, a Unicode application. In this case, take a look at the Asian Language Features Information on the FrameMaker Preferences dialog to see which Japanese features are available.

To do this on Windows XP, change the system setting "Language for non-Unicode programs" to Japanese. Ha - I've just realised that Frame 8 is, unlike previous versions, a Unicode application. In this case, take a look at the Asian Language Features Information on the FrameMaker Preferences dialog to see which Japanese features are available.

RE: Frame 7.2 and Vista
Hi Edwin, I do have Frame 7.2 installed under Vista but I haven't been using it intensively on this platform - my primary working environment is still XP. There was no problem with the standard installation of Frame, but I didn't install the included Acrobat Distiller as I already have Acrobat 8 Pro. As I mentioned in my message to the Framers list, I was at first unable to install the build 158 patch, but after trying the following suggestion from Denise L. Moss-Fritch I was able to apply the update: --- Right-click on the patch file and select Properties. From the Compatibility tab of the Properties dialog, select Run this program in the compatibility mode for check box and select Windows XP (Service Patch 2). Click OK. --- I haven't noticed any problems with Frame 7.2 on Vista but, as I mentioned, I haven't been using it intensively. Incidentally, I recently had to edit some old Frame 5.5 documents and I was surpised to find that Frame 5.5.6 installed and worked unexpectedly smoothly under Vista. If I had had the choice, I would have chosen XP for my new PC. I find some features of Vista extremely awkward, in particular the new version of Windows Explorer.

Difference between us and international english Framemaker
Verner, I believe my copy of FramMaker is the International English one. When you install it you see a dialog asking you to choose between US English or International English. I guess you wouldn't see this dialog if you had a US-only version. Choosing International English installs A4 versions of the custom templates. I don't think there's any other difference. (One extra step I take after installing is to change the "Language" setting in maker.ini from USEnglish to UKEnglish - this sets UK English as the default language in the designers.) _____ Phil Heron CODA Group International Ltd Tel +44 (0)1423 50 __ -Original Message- From: framers-bounces+phil.heron=coda.com at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces+phil.heron=coda@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Andersen, Verner Engell VEA Sent: 14 December 2006 07:21 To: Framers at FrameUsers.com Subject: Difference between us and international english Framemaker All Is there a difference between International and US Framemaker.

RE: FM cannot find file message
I had a few problems with FM file associations recently when I removed my old FM7.0 version. I had both FM 7.0 and FM7.2 installed and double-clicking a FM file opened it in FM7.0. Once I removed FM7.0 I could no longer open my FM files from Explorer. To rectify this, I used the fmreg.txt file in the FrameMaker home directory to update the registry. You can open this file to see what it does and to read the instructions for using it. (In short, at a Windows command prompt, change to the FrameMaker program directory and type FrameMaker -reg (without the quotes).

FM "cannot find file" message
I had a few problems with FM file associations recently when I removed my old FM7.0 version. I had both FM 7.0 and FM7.2 installed and double-clicking a FM file opened it in FM7.0. Once I removed FM7.0 I could no longer open my FM files from Explorer. To rectify this, I used the fmreg.txt file in the FrameMaker home directory to update the registry. You can open this file to see what it does and to read the instructions for using it. (In short, at a Windows command prompt, change to the FrameMaker program directory and type "FrameMaker -reg" (without the quotes).

RE: FM 7.2 starts much slower than 7.1
Framers, I think the new fonts supplied with Frame 7.2 (and 7.1) could do with better documentation. When I received my FM7.2 upgrade I knew it was supplied with a new set of fonts so I looked on the CD but couldn't find them anywhere. After inspecting my FM7.2 installation I found them all lurking in \Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker7.2\fminit\fonts\Adobe. I then attempted to install the fonts from there using the Windows Fonts control panel. After some puzzlement I eventually realised they were Private Fonts which could only be used in FM 7.2. They are clearly loaded by FM during program startup and thus lead to the extended startup time. I also eventually discovered that the only way to access the full set of font variations was by setting up paragraph styles. And finally, to embed the fonts in my Acrobat documents, I found I had to go the Font Locations dialog in Distiller and update the incorrect path to these private fonts. Why couldn't the FM 7.2 New Features PDF not say something like: FM 7.2 comes with a set of high-quality OpenType fonts. They are loaded during application startup and are then available for use in your FrameMaker documents. You cannot use them in your Windows applications.

Help with PDF problem and 11x17 page size
Carla, I think you should be able to create a PDF document containing a mixture of page sizes. I tried this and it worked first time: - Create three Frame files, one portrait, one landscape and one a custom size. - Create a Frame book containing the three files. - Print the book to a file, using the Adobe PDF printer and ticking the "Generate Acrobat Data" box. - Open the generated PS file with Acrobat Distiller. Success! A PDF file is created contining a combination of page sizes. In short: Make sure you are printing to the Adobe PDF printer. Make sure you set "Generate Acrobat Data" Hope this helps, Phil Heron Technical Writer - CODA www.coda.com -Original Message- From: framers-bounces+phil.heron=coda@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces+phil.heron=coda.com at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Carla Drye Sent: 17 March 2006 16:06 To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Help with PDF problem and 11x17 page size I'm new so please be kind. I work in Frame 7.1b023 with no plug-ins. I have a book file that incorporates multiple 8-1/2 x 11 page size files, multiple 11 x 17 page size files with cross references within files and from file to file, stand alone TOCs, LOFs, and LOTs that are generated and then copied and pasted into the front of the files. The book is then PDF'd with create hyperlinks turned on. The PDF works great and all the cross references for the TOC, LOF, LOT, from Frame work in the PDF. The problem is that the 11 x 17 pages (which are figures) end up on 8-1/2 x 11 pages in the book PDF. What I have been doing is going into each of the 11 x 17 files (9 total), and saving each as a stand-alone 11 x 17 PDF. Then I exchange each new 11 x 17 PDF for the old 8-1/2 x 11 page in the book PDF file. This works for getting the correct page size, but the link from the LOF (which is not on the 11 x 17 page) does not work. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to make the links work to the 11 x 17 pages? Thanks Carla J.H.

RE: Chinese-language FM documents
To display the level of support for Asian languages in Frame, choose File Preferences General and then click the Asian Language Features button. If you are running Frame in a Western environment (for example US English) a message will tell you that you can display Asian text (assuming you have the right fonts installed) but that most Asian language features are disabled. To enable full support for Asian languages (using a Western version of XP), start from the Windows XP Regional and Language Options control panel. - First choose the Languages tab. Tick the check box Install files for East Asian languages. This will cause the necessary support files (fonts, IMEs etc) for Chinese, Japanese etc to be installed. You will probably have to re-start after doing this. - Next choose the Advanced tab from the Regional and Language Options control panel and you will see a box titled Language for non-Unicode programs. If you are in the US this will probably be US English. Change the language here to the one you want to use in Frame - most likely this will be Simplified Chinese so you should choose Chinese (PRC). You will probably have to re-start again after doing this. Now display Frame's language support again and this time you should be informed that all Asian language features are now supported. If your Chinese speaker is familiar with using Windows to enter Chinese text, they should find that they can now choose their preferred keyboard and enter Chinese text into Windows applications (including Frame) using their normal techniques. If you want more information about using Asian keybards (IMEs) you might want to look at the following Microsoft site: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/handson/user/IME_Paper.mspx Hope this is of some help to you, Phil Heron Technical Writer - CODA www.coda.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 March 2006 00:03 To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Chinese-language FM documents Hi Framers, I need to edit a book of Chinese-language files (with the help of a Chinese speaker who doesn't know FM).

RE: Polish in FrameMaker
Yves, I've tried this out on my system. Here's what I did to copy Polish text from Word to FrameMaker: 1. I defined a FrameMaker paragraph format to use the Arial CE font. 2. I typed some text using Polish characters in a Word document. 3. I selected the text in Word and used Ctrl+C to copy it to the clipboard. 4. In FrameMaker, I put the insertion point into the paragraph formatted with the Arial CE font. 5. I chose Paste Special from the Frame Edit menu and selected RTF as the paste format. Bingo - the Polish characters displayed as expected. You could move RTF to the beginning of the ClipboardFormatsPriorities line in maker.ini. This will allow you to use regular Paste to put the Polish text in. I can also switch to the Polish keyboard and type Polish text directly into Frame. I didn't need to customise maker.ini or use WGL Assistant to activate Arial CE.

The maker.ini file has been customized and Arial CE has been activated using WGL Assistant. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Polish in FrameMaker
Yves, I've tried this out on my system. Here's what I did to copy Polish text from Word to FrameMaker: 1. I defined a FrameMaker paragraph format to use the Arial CE font. 2. I typed some text using Polish characters in a Word document. 3. I selected the text in Word and used Ctrl+C to copy it to the clipboard. 4. In FrameMaker, I put the insertion point into the paragraph formatted with the Arial CE font. 5. I chose Paste Special from the Frame Edit menu and selected RTF as the paste format. Bingo - the Polish characters displayed as expected. You could move RTF to the beginning of the ClipboardFormatsPriorities line in maker.ini. This will allow you to use regular Paste to put the Polish text in. I can also switch to the Polish keyboard and type Polish text directly into Frame. I didn't need to customise maker.ini or use WGL Assistant to activate Arial CE.

FrameMaker 6 and Distiller font embedding problem
Here are my answers to these questions: 1. Font licensing Purchasing a font does not necessarily entitle you to embed the font in a PDF file. It depends on the restrictions the font designer has specified for the font. If you have the Microsoft Opentype font properties extension (available from the Microsoft Typography web site www.microsoft.com/truetype), you can inspect the "Embeddability" of the font. If it is set to "Restricted licence embedding" then Acrobat Distiller will not embed it in the PDF file. 2. Acrobat Distiller was the name of the distillation port created by Acrobat up to V5. With V6 the name of the port changed to "Adobe PDF" but it still performs the same function.

Copying Text Box Crashes Frame
I can do this without any problem. Does the problem occur when you create a brand-new document or is it specific to a particular document? I have Frame 7.2 running on Windows XP.

HTML character entities in XML files
Mark, In answer to your question about character entities in xml files, here are two solutions to your problem: 1. Easy solution: If you only want to use one or two character entities, add the definitions to your DTD. For a non-breaking space, add a line such as the following to your DTD: 2. More flexible solution To use entity definitions stored in a file with structured Frame you will need 3 things: 1. The file(s) storing the entity definitions. 2. A reference to the entity definitions in the DTD 3. A reference to the location of the entity definition file(s) in the strctured application definition document. Take a look at the example structured applications supplied with Frame to see how this works. Frame XHTML structured application - - The entity definitions are stored in 3 files in the structure\xml\xhtml\app directory. You can find in xhtml-lat1.ent. - The entity definitions are referenced in the DTD (called "dtd" in this case). - Entity locations are specified in structapps.fm in the "Entity locations" element. Frame xDocBook structured application - - The entity definitions are stored in the .ent files in the structure\xml\isoents directory. You can find in iso-num.ent. - The entity definitions are referenced in the DocBook XML Character Entities module of the DTD (in the file called "dbcentx.mod" in this case). - Entity locations are specified in structapps.fm in the "Entity locations" element. NB: If you want to open xml files based on the Frame XHTML or xDocBook DTDs in an xml editor such as XMetaL, you need to specify the entity file locations in the DTD.

default fonts in Framemaker 6
When you create a new document in FrameMaker, the paragraph and character formats etc are derived from the document used as the template for the new document. If you create a new document using the File > New menu option, FrameMaker bases the document on the file "custom" in the FrameMaker fminit directory. As this is a FrameMaker document you can open it and make changes to the paragraph formats and so on. Save it with the same name and FrameMaker will use it as the template for any future custom documents. This procedure is described in the Frame manual in the section "Changing templates for blank paper and text files", P293 for Frame 5.5, P326 for Frame 7 (I don't have Frame 6). It's probably also in the online help. I think you are mistaken about Distiller failing to produce press-quality PDF files if it finds any Truetype fonts. There have been many messages on this list from Dov Isaacs of Adobe about this very subject. Phil Heron Technical Writer - CODA www.coda.com -Original Message- From: framers-bounces+phil.heron=coda.com at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces+phil.heron=coda@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of patrick scully Sent: 21 December 2005 16:35 To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: default fonts in Framemaker 6 Dear Framemaker users, Is it possible to change the default font (currently Times New Roman) that Framemaker uses for paragraph, character, table formats etc? I have looked in maker.ini, but its font defaults relate ONLY to what font substitutions are made where a user doesn't have a particular font. I don't EVER want to use Times New Roman or any other Truetype font in a document that I prepare for commercial printing. Distiller fails to produce press-quality PDF files if it finds any Truetype fonts. And it can be very difficult to find exactly where the Truetype font is lurking in a Framemaker document. The only workaround I can see currently is to delete everything from the paragraph, character and table catalogs, and start from scratch.
