FrameMaker save as xml does not convert entities

[O'Connor, Mark (Mark)]

Howdy all,

FrameMaker 7.x, Windows XP

We're saving files as xml. We're using the default isoents folder in the entity 
search path (in the FrameMaker application file).

The greater than, , character does not get converted to the gt; entity. 
Other entities, such as  do convert properly (in this case, to the lt; 
entity). The  symbol is entered as plain text.

I can create a new entity with a different name (adding it to the r/w rules and 
the entity file) and convert the  to that new name, but I can't use the iso 
standard name.

Is this a known issue?

It's only a concern because I don't know how many other entities are not being 
exported properly.

Thanks,
Mark O'Connor

Hi Mark...

Technically, the  character does not need to be an entity. Are you 
running into trouble with some process that's complaining about this? I 
think that the only characters that must be entities are ..  and  .. 
all others are optional.

Howdy all,

FrameMaker 7.x, Windows XP

We're saving files as xml. We're using the default isoents folder in the entity 
search path (in the FrameMaker application file).

The greater than, ">", character does not get converted to the  entity. 
Other entities, such as "<" do convert properly (in this case, to the  
entity). The > symbol is entered as plain text.

I can create a new entity with a different name (adding it to the r/w rules and 
the entity file) and convert the ">" to that new name, but I can't use the iso 
standard name.

Is this a known issue?

It's only a concern because I don't know how many other entities are not being 
exported properly.
