Hello,

Just to let you guys know - If you make use of FrameMaker variables, FrameMaker can store long strings in memory, but when it comes to displaying the content, it will show either 1023 characters, or sometimes 1024.

But the real problem with using long strings is that FrameMaker will crash IF you have a string longer than 1024 characters AND contains a special characters such as non-breaking space "\ " [\x11 in MIF] AND if you are opening the document as the first document since launch. If you open a New > Portrait document, and then open the bad document, don't attempt to open the Insert > Variables pane - FrameMaker will crash again!

I have logged this behaviour on the Adobe tracker portal: https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/FRMAKER-7708

When will Adobe allow strings to be longer than 1024 bytes?
