Re: Hypertext links in Acrobat8 documents generated from FM8don't work
Hi Austin, I have FrameMaker 5.5.6, 6.0, 7.0, 7.2, and 8.0 installed on the same computer. When going back and forth from 7.x to 8.0, you may have issues with characters changing. For example, I had some Zapf Dingbat characters that changed when I upgraded a document to 8.0. If you need an automated way to convert your 8.0 documents back to 7.x format, let me know. You could do this with a FrameScript script. Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing 585-659-8267 www.frameexpert.com We are feeling as if Adobe has just sabotaged our entire 15-year project. How could they have offered an upgrade that destroys hypertext? Our Kouroo project now has 212,974 files that have already been saved as FM8 since we upgraded a few weeks ago, so going back to FM7 seems difficult. We are, however, beginning to scheme a feasible workaround to give Adobe time to get its act together in regard to hypertext and FM8. FM8 does allow us to save an FM8 file in the FM7 format, and FM7 does generate valid hypertext in an Acrobat document. So, *if* we can have both FM8 and FM7 installed at the same time (if there is a way to keep them from interfering with each other), and *if* we don't use any UNICODE or other features that would be destroyed in the retro-save as FM7 (and if Acrobat8.1 can still handle hypertext), a possible workaround would be: to first save an FM8 document as a FM7 document before attempting to generate any Acrobat8.1 document with hypertext. That seems feasible if it's doable. The three questions associated with this feasible workaround would be: 1.) is there a way to have FM8 and still have FM7 also? --and, 2.) are there any new FM8 features that we cannot allow to be destroyed by saving as FM7? --and, 3.) does the 8.1 version of Acrobat still accept hypertext? Does anyone have any thoughts about this? Are the above three items doable? ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
