Setting a default scope for Track Text Edits

Hi folks,   In FM10, the Track Text Edits feature enables you to select the Scope according to which Framemaker will search for text changes: either Book (default), Document, DITA MAP (for structured FM) or Selected Documents. I'm looking for a way to change the default setting - instead of

Managing Word styles with macros / VBA

A quick search of list archives back to 2007 doesn’t quite address this. Where does one find, for a reasonable license fee, a set of Word macros / VBA code, for managing (especially cleaning and applying) Word styles, perhaps in the manner of Silicon Prairie Software’s: § Paragraph Tools §

Error when importing Visio objects to FM 7.2

Every time I try to import a Visio diagram(using File-import-object) into FM7.2(Unstructured), I am unable to save the file.  It throws the error:  An internal error occurred while writing imported graphics in this document. The file has been saved, but has lost some image data. Please report

AW: Using large amounts of text files imported as reference

Hi Linda, do you mean text files or frame files? It's very easy to create a new Frame file and to import many (many!) files as referenced files in it. Benefit: You can change anything in the original files for different releases and your book with chapters (and referenced files) are the

Schmuel, you are on the right path, but it sounds like you clicked inside the text box on the master page before you imported the graphic. Click outside the text box before you import the graphic. This is probably something you already know, but if this document is designed for printing

Thanks Mike. That was the problem. I inserted the graphic inside the text frame on the master page. When I inserted it outside the text frame it worked. Regards, Shmuel Wolfson On 8/11/2011 5:14 PM, Mike Wickham wrote: Schmuel, you are on the right path, but it sounds like you clicked

RE: Acrobat fails to highlight found search terms

Yes, this bug was noted previously on the list. It only started after Adobe's most recent patch of Acrobat 9.0 (which was supposedly a security patch rather than anything affecting basic functionality), and only seems to be a problem under Windows XP. Reportedly, Find works fine under Windows

RE: Acrobat fails to highlight found search terms

Actually, I'm running Acrobat 9 on Windows 7 Ultimate and I get exactly the same behaviour as Stuart. So it's broken in Windows 7 as well - and it's *very* annoying given that it defeats the whole purpose of the Find function. Alison From:

I have the free Acrobat Reader 9.4.5 on Windows Vista Pro, and I have noticed this problem too. Actually, I didn't even know about the Search feature, never needed it. The search window makes the search term bold in each occurrence, but when clicking on it to see it on the page, it has the

Importing Variables into files in Groups or Folders

I've got a FM10 book... up until very recently, we avoided using Groups or Folders in the book file because we needed to use the Archive plugin, which wasn't compatible. Rick Quatro's new script takes care of that problem, so I grouped files for my 500+ file programming guide to make life

RE: Error when importing Visio objects to FM 7.2

I just wanted to amplify on a couple of things Art said in his reply. First, it is generally a bad idea to use OLE linking even for applications and file formats that are officially supported (which does not include Visio). Yes, there are some people who have been using it successfully. But

Error when importing Visio objects to FM 7.2

Yeah, people have been seeing that message for several years. This is a result of Microsoft's initial faulty OLE implementation, compounded by the re-write of OLE that they released in XP SP3, which totally broke the Adobe OLE handling. Bottom line is it didn't work years ago, it still doesn't
