RE: FrameMaker 9: Dialogues sizes

[Jeff Coatsworth]

Hi Hedley,

Since I don't have any experience with prior versions of FM, I can't
comment on the (a) bigger question, but in using FM9, they're (b) not
resizable - I find on one of my monitors running at 1280x1024, the fonts
are really small in the Marker Text entry screens.

Jeff ;)

I haven't trialled FM9 yet, but if the various tiny dialogue windows are
now (a) bigger and (b) resizable, those would be immense improvements.

Anyway/tool to update cross-ref defs easily

[Kanti . Mann]

Hello: 

I'm about to update templates to use simple, sequential page numbering, 
rather than chapter-pagenum in our books. 

Of course, that's a number of definitional updates, one of which I so 
dislike is the cross-ref formats. 

Is there any tool (such as IXgen for index markers) or tricak that will 
let me see cross-ref formats more easily (other than MIF)???

RE: FM 9

[Pinkham, Jim]

I've got a 24-inch monitor, and it's just about right with FM 9. It was
very helpful before; I'd say it's all but essential now.

Like the new features (without the bugs would be better), one thing I
haven't mentioned the product should have a way and time to empty it's
temp file like right after you close a document. 

 

It is r r e a ly slow loading the program even after you empty the
temp file - and wouldn't mind so much but a bouncing FM9 or a loading
bar or something should let you know the program is on it's way in.  

 

Adobe Techs have been great in trying to address the issues especially
the features the patch broke.

 

Harder to work in FM9 when you don't have 2 screens.

Re: Anyway/tool to update cross-ref defs easily

[Peter Gold]

Hi, Kanti:

* Depending on how you've defined the cross-reference formats to
capture the compound chapter-page numbers, you may find that modifying
the cross-reference formats and importing them across your books
works. (Back-up all files before experimenting.)

* markerworker is a free FM plug-in that might work for you. It's not
been updated in a long time, so it may not work with FM 8 or 9.

Find it at: http://www.freeframers.org/freeware/cud/

Regards,

Peter

RE: FrameMaker 9: Dialogues sizes

[Pinkham, Jim]

Has anyone tried Resource Hacker on these yet? I haven't, but it would
seem the way to go, at least until Adobe gets this fixed on its own. It
was a big help in 7p1.

Hmm...might I detect a note of teasing here? Or perhaps it's mild
aggravation at an imprecise question. Either way, yes, it's a vague
question, so I'll defer an exhaustive answer for the moment.

I've been using FM 9, as part of TCS 2, for about two weeks. I've run
into a few ultimately minor bugs and annoyances; good, prompt help from
Adobe; plug-ins carrying over quite well; good FM integration with the
rest of the suite; and an interface that I find more efficient and
productive than FM 7p1. We haven't made any corporate decisions yet, but
at this point, I like the new version a lot and don't want to go back. 

If you're looking for a general, bottom-line assessment, that's it for
me. If you have specific questions, spell them out and those of us on
the list will try to help.

Jim

Hi Oran,

 

Regarding your points, 

 

1. I cannot get the Paragraph Formatting tool bar Tab icons to work. On
earlier versions I could drag them onto the ruler to add new tabs. While
I can move existing tabs on the ruler, I cannot seem to add new with the
icons. The tab icons seem inoperative, as I cannot make to do anything
through dragging, double-click, etc. I do see the New Tab Stop text in
the paragraph designer flicker when I click an icon, but nothing else
happens . 

 

 

Megha To add a tab stop, click a tab stop symbol from Paragraph Format
toolbar and click the desired position below the top ruler. Refer to
FrameMaker 9 user guide , page 43.

 

 

2. If I use the Screen Mode icon to select? Full Screen Mode the

shortcut to get back to your link

[Lynn Durell]

Hi Framers,

I know you can hold down Alt Gr and click to follow a link, but I can't 
remember what you do to then get back to where you were. Is there a 
shortcut for this?

I'm on FM 7.1 on Windows XP.

Thanks very much,
Lynn

FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[Corcoran, Susan]

I've just recently loaded TCS 2 and gotten a good look at FM9.  I really
like the new interface, even though it is different.  I especially like
the ability to customize it and save workspace versions.  However, I've
found the Welcome Screen to be *really* annoying.  Usually, welcome
screens disappear once an app is running, but this thing remains.  I
realize it offers some shortcuts (and a lot of Adobe marketing links),
but I can get those from my menus, just like any other Adobe
application.  I wonder why Adobe did this with Framemaker, when none of
their other applications behave this way.  Does anyone else dislike the
welcome screen?

Re: FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[Yves Barbion]

Hi Susan

I don't like the welcome screen either. If someone knows how to tweak some
cfg or ini file to get rid of it, i'd be grateful if they could share it
with us.

Thanks.

RE: shortcut to get back to your link

Responding to Lynn Durell, Yves Barbion wrote:

 Esc + v + P

Just to clarify a bit, this is three keystrokes *in sequence*, not in

Also the v is lower-case and the P is upper-case (Shift+P); yes, case

*does* matter in FrameMaker's escape-key shortcut codes.

 Apply a different tag to the selected text and then retag it with

[no subject]

[Kevin Hunter]

Hi everyone,

[Sent this yesterday from Thunderbird where it went through blank...]

I'm at frame 7.0p578 and I'm having an issue with numbered lists and text 
flows.

I have a document with two flows, A  B, in parallel on a page. In flow A, 
my numbered lists sequence fine. It is set to AutoConnect. With flow B, 
which appears to be identically set up, my numbered lists restart on every 
page. I've tried adjusting the master page, the frames individually, 
auto-connect on and off, and nothing seems to work. From the guide and a few 
pages out there on Google, it would appear that those are the only variables 
I should have to worry about.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated!

thanks,

Kevin

I'm on FM 9 p230 in the TCS 2. I just get the Welcome screen once when I

SalesForce knowledgebase?

[John Sgammato]

Does anyone have experience porting FrameMaker procedures (or online
help procedures) into a SalesForce knowledgebase?
I am considering a switch to Structured FrameMaker 8/DITA and I wonder
if one of my benefits will be the ability to port individual procedures
into a knowledgebase (or even a MySQL database) for access by customers.
Our current knowledgebase includes only customized procedures, but it
would help Support if all my known-good, reviewed, edited procedures
were in there for them to use as-is or as a basis for customization.

FDK - reading single lines of text from a MIF file

[CSMonck]

Hello !

I am new to this list and I hope someone can help me with a question about 
the FrameMaker Development Kit (FDK).

I am using the FDK to write a DLL which processes MIF files. I am familiar 
with the FDK read and write commmands,   F_ChannelRead and F_ChannelWrite, 
but what I want to do is to read single lines from the MIF files in the same 
way that commands such as fgets and fputs work in standard C. From the 
tests I have done it seems that F_ChannelRead and F_ChannelWrite only 
operate 
on blocks of memory/text of a specified size.

I have got my DLL working using fopen and fclose to open and close files 
and fgets and fputs to read and write lines of text from and to files, but 
I understand that these commands are deprecated in FDK-land.

Can anyone help, please?

Thank you,
Charlie

Linking Master Pages to A Pgf Tag in an Anchored Frame

[Jona Steenbrink]

Frame 8.0
Win XP

I was wondering if it is possible to link a Master Page to a paragraph  
tag that appears inside an anchored frame.

What I need to do is the following.

I've created a large graphic (7.5x10) contained within an anchored  
frame.
The frame is anchored in a body paragraph with the settings below  
current line and floating so that it appears on the next available  
page and takes up the entire page.
I've put some text in a Text Frame, inside the anchored frame and  
applied a pgf tag imaginatively called FullSizedGraphic.
I've created a master page called FullSizedGraphic with a colored  
background and linked it to the FullSizedGraphic pgf tag in the Master  
Page mapping table.
I select Apply Master Pages and all other Master Pages are applied,  
except for the one I went to all of that effort to create.

Is it simply the case that Frame doesn't read pgf tags in an anchored  
frame? If so, can anyone think of an alternative way of doing this? I  
could anchor the frame to a custom pgf tag on its own page, but I want  
the graphic to float.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jona

Re: FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[Mike Wickham]

 Does anyone else dislike the welcome screen?

It seemed a little odd at first, but as soon as I open a non-book file, the 
welcome screen disappears. It 's actually handy to have the recent file list 
there. So I've grown to like it.

RE: FrameMaker 9

[RJ Jacquez]

Hi Pat, something else you may want to take a look at is an eLearning session I 
did a couple weeks ago on how to get the most out of the new User Interface in 
FrameMaker 9.  Many Frame users have found it useful as they look at the new 
features in fm9, and here's the link to the recording: 
http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/p17912987/

I'm also working on some of the features that Sheila mentioned in the review 
below, which are actually there, like the ability to replace missing fonts and 
how the Start Meeting works in both FrameMaker 9 and RoboHelp 8 through 
Acrobat.com and will post a few short Captivate movies on how exactly these 
features work, just to make sure these are clear to anyone interested in 
looking at the new version of Frame.  

In addition, I will be hosting an eLearning session on exactly how the Import 
PDF comments work, probably after I return from WritersUA, keep an eye on my 
blog for an announcement.

A couple more things regarding the review, on page 5, there's a mention of how 
to get back to the book view of a DITAMap file and the correct way of doing 
this is through Window  Composite Documents.

Also, on Page 3, there's a mention of a bug regarding the Ctrl+F8, F9, which 
was addressed in the recent patch we released, so now you can apply paragraph 
and character styles using the above keyboard shortcuts and F8 and F9, too.

Furthermore throughout the review, there are mentions about how to reset 
workspaces and other issues with the new user interface, and again if you want 
to know more about this, please check out the link above which goes through the 
entire process.

Re: font changes in ini

[Mike Wickham]

Finding the correct font name is sometimes difficult, but making the entries 
in maker.ini is easy. These two sets of instructions are embedded in 
maker.ini:

[WindowsToFrameFontAliases]
;
; This section gives the Frame font name for a Windows font.
; The format is Windows_Font=Frame_Font
; Note this is the only place in maker.ini which refers to Windows fonts.
; All other maker.ini font entries refer to the FrameFont.
;
; The format is (on a single line):
;
;  A_WINDOWS_FONT_NAME,[Italic | Regular |*],[A_WEIGHT |*]=
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME, [ AN_ANGLE | * ], [ A_WEIGHT | * ],
;   [ A_VARIATION | * ]
;
;  A_WINDOWS_FONT_NAME=a valid windows font face as it appears in other
;  Windows applications.
;
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME=anything, but generally it is chosen to have
;Frame cross-platform compatibility.
;
;  A_WEIGHT=Defined above as Weights=
;
;  AN_ANGLE=Defined above as Angles=
;
;  A_VARIATION=Defined above as Variations=
;
; In the absence of an alias, the default aliasing is always applied,
; it can be written:
; Windows Family Name, *, *=Windows Family Name, *, *, *
;
; The following are example of entries:
;
; Helvetica, Italic, *=Helvetica, Oblique, *, Regular
; HelveticaNarrow, *, *=Helvetica, * , * , Narrow
; HelveticaNarrow,Italic, *=Helvetica, Oblique, *, Narrow
;

[UnknownToKnownFontMap]
;
;  This section is for mapping unavailable fonts when reading a document.
;  The format is:Frame Font Unavailable=Frame Font Available
;
;  The format for a Frame Font is (on one line):
;
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME, [AN_ANGLE | WILDCARD],[A_WEIGHT | WILDCARD],
;   [A_VARIATION | WILDCARD]
;
;  When no mapping is provided the defaults are used in the
;  Default section of [Fonts]
;
;  Examples:
;Lumina,*,*,*=Helvetica, *, *, *
;Helvetica,*,Light,*=Helvetica,*,Regular,*
;Helvetica,*,*,UltraCompressed=Helvetica, *, *, Narrow

 How complicated is it to do font changes in the ini file,

 And where can I get those directions?



 Times  to Times New
 Roman

 Helvetica to Arial

 Times New Roman Greek  to Helvetica Greek

 Arial Black Heavyto Arial Extra Bold

 Tekton to Tekton Pro



 And a few others.

RE: FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[RJ Jacquez]

One of the drivers behind our decision for the Welcome Screen in FM9 came from 
new users' feedback, who found themselves launching FrameMaker to a blank 
screen and didn't know exactly where to start.  

However I do agree that there should be a preference somewhere for turning it 
off for more seasoned users, but like Mike, I find it extremely usefully for 
displaying my recent files as soon as I launch the product.  

The good news is that for those of you, who find it odd, it goes away as soon 
as you open a frame doc.

Re: FrameMaker 9: Dialogues sizes

[Mike Wickham]

 I haven't trialled FM9 yet, but if the various tiny dialogue windows are
 now (a) bigger and (b) resizable, those would be immense improvements.

Some are resizable, such as Add/Edit Condition Tag. They have enlarged many 
of the fields in the various panels. It's definitely an improvement.

Anyway/tool to update cross-ref defs easily

[kanti.m...@schange.com]

Hello: 

I'm about to update templates to use simple, sequential page numbering, 
rather than chapter-pagenum in our books. 

Of course, that's a number of definitional updates, one of which I so 
dislike is the cross-ref formats. 

Is there any tool (such as IXgen for index markers) or tricak that will 
let me see cross-ref formats more easily (other than MIF)???

Like the new features (without the bugs would be better), one thing I
haven't mentioned the product should have a way and time to empty it's
temp file like right after you close a document. 



It is r r e a ly slow loading the program even after you empty the
temp file - and wouldn't mind so much but a bouncing FM9 or a loading
bar or something should let you know the program is on it's way in.  



Adobe Techs have been great in trying to address the issues especially
the features the patch broke.



Harder to work in FM9 when you don't have 2 screens.

Anyway/tool to update cross-ref defs easily

[Peter Gold]

Hi, Kanti:

* Depending on how you've defined the cross-reference formats to
capture the compound chapter-page numbers, you may find that modifying
the cross-reference formats and importing them across your books
works. (Back-up all files before experimenting.)

* markerworker is a free FM plug-in that might work for you. It's not
been updated in a long time, so it may not work with FM 8 or 9.

Find it at: http://www.freeframers.org/freeware/cud/

Regards,

Peter

Has anyone tried Resource Hacker on these yet? I haven't, but it would
seem the way to go, at least until Adobe gets this fixed on its own. It

would like to print this particular view to use as a sample of the
structure for a meeting but want to be able print the entire document
not just a few screen captures.



Thank you,

Hi Oran,



Regarding your points, 



1. I cannot get the Paragraph Formatting tool bar Tab icons to work. On
earlier versions I could drag them onto the ruler to add new tabs. While
I can move existing tabs on the ruler, I cannot seem to add new with the
icons. The tab icons seem inoperative, as I cannot make to do anything
through dragging, double-click, etc. I do see the "New Tab Stop" text in
the paragraph designer flicker when I click an icon, but nothing else
happens . 





 To add a tab stop, click a tab stop symbol from Paragraph Format
toolbar and click the desired position below the top ruler. Refer to
FrameMaker 9 user guide , page 43.





2. If I use the "Screen Mode" icon to select? "Full Screen Mode" the
menus correctly

Hi Framers,

I know you can hold down Alt Gr and click to follow a link, but I can't 
remember what you do to then get back to where you were. Is there a 
shortcut for this?

I'm on FM 7.1 on Windows XP.

Thanks very much,
Lynn

FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[Corcoran, Susan]

I've just recently loaded TCS 2 and gotten a good look at FM9.  I really
like the new interface, even though it is different.  I especially like
the ability to customize it and save workspace versions.  However, I've
found the Welcome Screen to be *really* annoying.  Usually, welcome
screens disappear once an app is running, but this thing remains.  I
realize it offers some shortcuts (and a lot of Adobe marketing links),
but I can get those from my menus, just like any other Adobe
application.  I wonder why Adobe did this with Framemaker, when none of
their other applications behave this way.  Does anyone else dislike the
welcome screen?

FYI, Susan, I'm getting the same sort of screen on Illustrator CS 4. It
does not appear to be unique to Frame.

FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

Hi Susan

I don't like the welcome screen either. If someone knows how to tweak some
cfg or ini file to get rid of it, i'd be grateful if they could share it
with us.

Just to clarify a bit, this is three keystrokes *in sequence*, not in 

combination (i.e. simultaneous) as some might infer from the + signs.

Also the v is lower-case and the P is upper-case (Shift+P); yes, case

*does* matter in FrameMaker's escape-key shortcut codes.

Hi everyone,

[Sent this yesterday from Thunderbird where it went through blank...]

I'm at frame 7.0p578 and I'm having an issue with numbered lists and text 
flows.

I have a document with two flows, A & B, in parallel on a page. In flow A, 
my numbered lists sequence fine. It is set to AutoConnect. With flow B, 
which appears to be identically set up, my numbered lists restart on every 
page. I've tried adjusting the master page, the frames individually, 
auto-connect on and off, and nothing seems to work. From the guide and a few 
pages out there on Google, it would appear that those are the only variables 
I should have to worry about.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated!

thanks,

Kevin

SalesForce knowledgebase?

[John Sgammato]

Does anyone have experience porting FrameMaker procedures (or online
help procedures) into a SalesForce knowledgebase?
I am considering a switch to Structured FrameMaker 8/DITA and I wonder
if one of my benefits will be the ability to port individual procedures
into a knowledgebase (or even a MySQL database) for access by customers.
Our current knowledgebase includes only customized procedures, but it
would help Support if all my known-good, reviewed, edited procedures
were in there for them to use as-is or as a basis for customization.

FDK - reading single lines of text from a MIF file

[csmo...@aol.com]

Hello !

I am new to this list and I hope someone can help me with a question about 
the FrameMaker Development Kit (FDK).

I am using the FDK to write a DLL which processes MIF files. I am familiar 
with the FDK read and write commmands,   "F_ChannelRead" and "F_ChannelWrite", 
but what I want to do is to read single lines from the MIF files in the same 
way that commands such as "fgets" and "fputs" work in standard "C". From the 
tests I have done it seems that "F_ChannelRead" and "F_ChannelWrite" only 
operate 
on blocks of memory/text of a specified size.

I have got my DLL working using "fopen" and "fclose" to open and close files 
and "fgets" and "fputs" to read and write lines of text from and to files, but 
I understand that these commands are deprecated in "FDK-land".

Can anyone help, please?

Thank you,
Charlie

Linking Master Pages to A Pgf Tag in an Anchored Frame

[Jona Steenbrink]

Frame 8.0
Win XP

I was wondering if it is possible to link a Master Page to a paragraph  
tag that appears inside an anchored frame.

What I need to do is the following.

I've created a large graphic (7.5x10) contained within an anchored  
frame.
The frame is anchored in a body paragraph with the settings "below  
current line" and "floating" so that it appears on the next available  
page and takes up the entire page.
I've put some text in a Text Frame, inside the anchored frame and  
applied a pgf tag imaginatively called FullSizedGraphic.
I've created a master page called FullSizedGraphic with a colored  
background and linked it to the FullSizedGraphic pgf tag in the Master  
Page mapping table.
I select Apply Master Pages and all other Master Pages are applied,  
except for the one I went to all of that effort to create.

Is it simply the case that Frame doesn't read pgf tags in an anchored  
frame? If so, can anyone think of an alternative way of doing this? I  
could anchor the frame to a custom pgf tag on its own page, but I want  
the graphic to float.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jona

It seemed a little odd at first, but as soon as I open a non-book file, the 
welcome screen disappears. It 's actually handy to have the recent file list 
there. So I've grown to like it.

FrameMaker 9

[RJ Jacquez]

Hi Pat, something else you may want to take a look at is an eLearning session I 
did a couple weeks ago on how to get the most out of the new User Interface in 
FrameMaker 9.  Many Frame users have found it useful as they look at the new 
features in fm9, and here's the link to the recording: 
http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/p17912987/

I'm also working on some of the features that Sheila mentioned in the review 
below, which are actually there, like the ability to replace missing fonts and 
how the "Start Meeting" works in both FrameMaker 9 and RoboHelp 8 through 
Acrobat.com and will post a few short Captivate movies on how exactly these 
features work, just to make sure these are clear to anyone interested in 
looking at the new version of Frame.  

In addition, I will be hosting an eLearning session on exactly how the Import 
PDF comments work, probably after I return from WritersUA, keep an eye on my 
blog for an announcement.

A couple more things regarding the review, on page 5, there's a mention of how 
to get back to the book view of a DITAMap file and the correct way of doing 
this is through Window > Composite Documents.

Also, on Page 3, there's a mention of a bug regarding the Ctrl+F8, F9, which 
was addressed in the recent patch we released, so now you can apply paragraph 
and character styles using the above keyboard shortcuts and F8 and F9, too.

Furthermore throughout the review, there are mentions about how to reset 
workspaces and other issues with the new user interface, and again if you want 
to know more about this, please check out the link above which goes through the 
entire process.

font changes in ini

[Mike Wickham]

Finding the correct font name is sometimes difficult, but making the entries 
in maker.ini is easy. These two sets of instructions are embedded in 
maker.ini:

[WindowsToFrameFontAliases]
;
; This section gives the Frame font name for a Windows font.
; The format is Windows_Font=Frame_Font
; Note this is the only place in maker.ini which refers to Windows fonts.
; All other maker.ini font entries refer to the FrameFont.
;
; The format is (on a single line):
;
;  A_WINDOWS_FONT_NAME,[Italic | Regular |*],[A_WEIGHT |*]=
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME, [ AN_ANGLE | * ], [ A_WEIGHT | * ],
;   [ A_VARIATION | * ]
;
;  A_WINDOWS_FONT_NAME=a valid windows font face as it appears in other
;  Windows applications.
;
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME=anything, but generally it is chosen to have
;Frame cross-platform compatibility.
;
;  A_WEIGHT=Defined above as Weights=
;
;  AN_ANGLE=Defined above as Angles=
;
;  A_VARIATION=Defined above as Variations=
;
; In the absence of an alias, the default aliasing is always applied,
; it can be written:
; Windows Family Name, *, *=Windows Family Name, *, *, *
;
; The following are example of entries:
;
; Helvetica, Italic, *=Helvetica, Oblique, *, Regular
; HelveticaNarrow, *, *=Helvetica, * , * , Narrow
; HelveticaNarrow,Italic, *=Helvetica, Oblique, *, Narrow
;

[UnknownToKnownFontMap]
;
;  This section is for mapping unavailable fonts when reading a document.
;  The format is:Frame Font Unavailable=Frame Font Available
;
;  The format for a Frame Font is (on one line):
;
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME, [AN_ANGLE | WILDCARD],[A_WEIGHT | WILDCARD],
;   [A_VARIATION | WILDCARD]
;
;  When no mapping is provided the defaults are used in the
;  Default section of [Fonts]
;
;  Examples:
;Lumina,*,*,*=Helvetica, *, *, *
;Helvetica,*,Light,*=Helvetica,*,Regular,*
;Helvetica,*,*,UltraCompressed=Helvetica, *, *, Narrow
;

FrameMaker 9 Welcome Screen

[RJ Jacquez]

One of the drivers behind our decision for the Welcome Screen in FM9 came from 
new users' feedback, who found themselves launching FrameMaker to a blank 
screen and didn't know exactly where to start.  

However I do agree that there should be a preference somewhere for turning it 
off for more seasoned users, but like Mike, I find it extremely usefully for 
displaying my recent files as soon as I launch the product.  

The good news is that for those of you, who find it odd, it goes away as soon 
as you open a frame doc.
