1. Select the text that you want to mark.
2. Open the character designer.
3. Check the Change Bar button.
4. Click the Update button. Make sure that you don't use Update

To remove the change bars, do the opposite:

Fred, I agree that this list is relevant to the authors only and does not have

Hello Framers,
I am using FrameMaker 9 on a Windows XP system.
I have been using EPS format graphics, created with Illustrator (CS4) and
Photoshop (CS4), in my FrameMaker books. This works well for two main
reasons:
I can double click the graphic within FrameMaker and the EPS file opens

Hi Ant,
Probably not what you want to hear but...
Frankly, why bother. It is reinventing the wheel that Adobe decided to
let fall some years go with Frame View, et al. InDesign already has a
client application for copy editing, I see no particular reason for
Frame to have another
I admit I'm astonished that any software product manager could ask about the
market for a Light version of their product.
I thought the industry had already proven - time and again - that such things

If they want to expand the market for Frame, why not bring back the Mac/Unix
Totally agreeing with Rick here, and yet curiously, we are both SMEs.
Go figure ;)

it were inexpensive enough ($99 at the most), it could be used by clients

clients will not buy Frame, and find PDF markup cumbersome for extensive

It will never happen.
Adobe's solution is for you to give someone an edible PDF and have them comment
in the PDF in sticky notes or mark the PDF using the advanced text editor
tools. Then, with Acro 10, you can import their comments and changes into Frame
and then accept or reject them through

That is arguable. Elements applications are horrible and not at all
like Photoshop or Premiere. And whatever you think of Elements, Frame
Light would be very different from any of the above.
