Can't you just do this with a find and replace by pasting? Set up one
instance of the character with the proper character format, select it and
copy, then find the character and replace by pasting, which puts in the
character with the character format.

Hi,
We use Framemaker 7.1 and FDK 7.1 to create an API client (DLL) that
converts the .fm files to .xml. This DLL is built and compiled using
VC++ 6.0 (FM 7.1/FDK 7.1) and is then placed under the
framemaker7.1\fminit\plugins directory.
The system requirements section of FDK 7.2 and 7.1 suggest

Psst. A dirty little not-so-secret.
FrameMaker does NOT support "native .AI files."
What it does support are Adobe Illustrator files
saved with the PDF-compatibility option. When you
import such files, FrameMaker's import filter ignores
the private Illustrator data in such files and treats

Depends how you have things set up.
If you have been working from the network, and selected for FrameMaker to
create a backup file, I'm afraid the default is to place the backup file in
the working directory (right next to each other, it's daft!).
