Re: [Framers] Grouping books, generated lists, and cross-references

In case anyone was curious, I was able to get what I wanted to work from within Frame 12. By adding a folder to one book, populating that folder with the individual files of the second book, and then generating a postscript file (and then a PDF), I got cross-book cross-references with no genera

[Framers] Import script for portions of Word documents

Named Destination Types Defined

Hi. I am looking for information regarding the Named Destinations that FrameMaker (I use Frame v10) generates when creating a PDF. Specifically, I'd like to verify/know what the following prefixes mean. I have tried to ascertain what the designations mean by clicking on them in the PDF, but som

RE: Disappearing Scripts in Script Library

Very odd. Yes, I do have the latest version, but when I turned on my computer Friday morning, the scripts were not listed in the Catalog. I added them again and turned off my computer for the weekend. I just checked and the scripts are in the catalog. Thanks for the response Rick. Eric Isaacs

Disappearing Scripts in Script Library

What is the point of the Favourite Scripts portion of the Script Library in Frame 10 if the scripts disappear when I reopen Frame?! Am I missing something obvious? Thanks. Eric Isaacson Product Literature Manager Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, Inc. eric_isaac...@selinc.com 509.332.1890 x1

Frame 10 Installation Question

Hello. My group is getting FrameMaker 10 after having worked with FrameMaker 6 for many, many years. I was curious about the installation of the Adobe PDF Creation Add-on. Should we not install that? I ask because I was pointed to this by a colleague: forums.adobe.com/message/3874452. Plus, I r

I have a book totaling 80 consecutive pages but made up of several files. I have been asked by our Quality dept. to use Page X of Y in my footers (the result of an audit). When I put in the Page Count variable, I get the page count of the individual file (the Y part of the page count footer), n

FM 6.0 and Windows 7

There was a thread a long time ago about FM compatibility with Windows 7, but at that time the focus was on FM 7. Is anyone running FM 6 on Win 7 successfully? Anyone running it and experiencing any issues (and, if you don't mind, what are the issues)? Thanks! *

Disappearing Character When Printed

Hello. I have a tiny problem that is driving me nuts. I received a Word file and copy and pasted the text into FrameMaker (6.0p405 on Win XP) as text. Everything was fine until I went to print the resulting PDF (Acrobat Pro 9.1.0) and discovered that one character in the whole document was not

Hello. When I generate the TOC (or any other generated list), the link stops where there is a change in character formatting (for example, where I've used an italic character tag on a word in a heading). This carries over to the PDFs I generate. Has there been any fix or workaround to get the T

OT: Problems with Acrobat 7 and Word 2000

Hello. I'm hoping someone on this list either has experienced this problem or knows something about it. I recently installed Acrobat 7 (and upgrade to 7.05) and was loving it until I opened Word 2000--when I did, Word gave me an application error message ("The memory could not be 'read'.").
