FrameScript menu disappearing

2010-07-28 Thread mathieu jacquet

Hi all,

I'm running FM9 on Vista 64.

I downloaded WebWorks yesterday to perform some tests regarding an FM - 
Confluence migration. Now, my FrameScript menu has disappeared and only 
Snag-It, Pubs-Tools (for the BookVars plugin), Tools (for Paragraph and 
Character Tools) and WebWorks menus are displayed. 

How can I easily manage such menus, for example to have the Snag-It menu (which 
I do not use) replaced by the FrameScript menu?

Thank you all,

Mathieu.

RE: FrameScript menu disappearing

2010-07-28 Thread Mueller, Klaus
Hello Mathieu,

 I cannot access the FrameScript menu

Do you get the FrameScript messages in the FM console on FM start?
Try to comment out your (WebWorks) plug-ins in the maker.ini in the
[APIClients] section.

 Is there a way to launching a script out of the menu command?

No, I don't think so.

Kind regards,
Klaus

Sorry for the late chime in on this, but FrameScript includes a
paragraph mapping script that does this in the Samples directory.
Works well.

And FrameScript is on sale through the end of this week, 25% or so off, I think.

 question appears on the list twice).

 Out of curiosity, is there a utility  that allows you to map the template
 definitions from one FM  file to another?

 For example, say that I had an FM file with the following paratags:

 Heading1
 Heading2
 Heading3

 And another FM file with the following paratags:

 ChapTitle
 Heading 1
 Heading 2

 Is there a utility where I could say:

 Change Heading1 to ChapTitle
 Change Heading2 to Heading 1
 Change Heading3 to Heading 2

index sorting by numbers with decimal points

2010-07-28 Thread Phoenix Hummel
Using FM 9.2.
 
Is there an easy way to sort numeric index entries with decimal points...? As 
the reference page exists, my numerics are sorted according to the number 
appearing as the first number to the left of the decimal point - that results 
in my numbers not sorting correctly. For example, 9.3 appears after 750.350 
because 9 is larger than 0. My current fix is to pad with zeros the numbers in 
my marker box by following the actual marker text with brackets enclosing the 
number to be sorted with the padded zeros. For example, 750.350[75000350] and 
9.3[9003]. My books contain up to 100 legal statutory references and this 
process is tedious and incredibly time consuming. Any ideas?

FM 8 Unstructured Converting to PDF: Lose some text, headings, bullets in PDF only

2010-07-28 Thread Patricia . S . Michalak
I'm using FM 8 in Windows XP and having a problem with one book (and not 
other books on which I worked recently).

When I open the book and chapters/files, I get error messages indicating 
that some of the files are missing fonts and/or have unresolved 
cross-references. (The unresolved CRs don't show-up when I update the 
book.)

When I try to create a PDF of the book, some of the text, headings, and 
bullets are missing in the PDF version, but not in the FM files.

Our FM tech person isn't available. Help!

RE: index sorting by numbers with decimal points

2010-07-28 Thread Rick Quatro
Hi Phoenix,

I use a similar algorithm, but in this case, you should be padding the just
portion before the decimal point with zeros.

9.3[009.3]
750.350[750.350]

I use a FrameScript script to do the padding so it is automated and
painless. If you can send me a sample document, I will give you a price on a
script. If you don't have FrameScript, the cost is 25% off this week. Please
let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much.

Re: FM 8 Unstructured Converting to PDF: Lose some text, headings, bullets in PDF only

2010-07-28 Thread Art Campbell
First, you should also make sure that your system default printer is
set to be the Acrobat printer -- if it isn't, you could be working
with fonts that aren't available to you when you make the PDF -- if,
for instance, they're resident on a physical printer down the hall,
but not on your computer.

And ince you mentioned that you're on XP, an important starting point
would be to apply the PostScript Hotfix from Microsoft.
The write-up is at

 When I open the book and chapters/files, I get error messages indicating
 that some of the files are missing fonts and/or have unresolved
 cross-references. (The unresolved CRs don't show-up when I update the
 book.)

The unresolved cross-references are a temporary phenomenon caused by the 
missing fonts. When you open File A, if it contains xrefs to File B, FM tries 
to open File B silently in the background just to check (resolve) the xrefs. 
If File B has missing fonts, FM can't open it silently -- it needs to alert you 
and find out what you want to do -- so the xrefs are (for the time being) 
unresolved. 

Find and fix your font problem, and the xref problem will probably disappear. 
Art suggested one possible cause, but there could be others (especially since 
you have other books without that problem). After you tell FM to open a file 
with unavailable fonts, temporarily substituting an available font, look in the 
Console window to see what fonts are missing. If they're really supposed to be 
used, then you'll need to install those fonts. 

But if it's just some obsolete cruft that came from an old version of a file or 
something, you might want to turn off Remember Missing Font Names and make the 
temporary replacement permanent. Search the archives for unavailable fonts to 
find detailed instructions for that and a host of other ways to deal with 
missing fonts. 

You can search the archives using Google: search string

this. Here's a link to the modules price list:

http://www.squidds.de/fileadmin/daten/pdfs/preislisten05_us/TOOLBOXfor_Modules_Pricelist_No5_Jan2010_USA_Squid_010210.pdf

More info can be found on the entire Toolbox here: www.toolboxforme.com. I 
find the site very hard to navigate, but the tools are good. You can 
download a 30-day trial of the entire Toolbox. After 30 days, a few of the 
tools are free and continue to work. The others, including Format List, will 
stop working until you license them.

Hi -

I'm using FM9 and I'm wondering if there's a utility that will list  all 
the formats, not just their names but also their definitions?


Thanks in advance.

From the Silicon Prairie Software website (with emphasis added):

Paragraph Tools

Paragraph Tools provides additional capabilities for working with  
paragraphs in FrameMaker documents. As a documentation set ages, it  
tends to get polluted with extra paragraph tags that are no longer  
used. Paragraph Tools can help. Its capabilities include listing  
paragraph tag usage, removing unused paragraph tags from Frame  
documents, converting paragraphs to use different tags, and  
locating and removing paragraph tag overrides. It also contains a  
routine that generates a report listing all the characteristics of  
the paragraph tags defined in a document.
Paragraph Tools is $10 for a single-user license, $100 for a site  
license, and is available for FrameMaker 6.x, 7.x, 8, and 9 on  
Windows and FrameMaker 6 and 7 on Macintosh.

FrameScript menu disappearing

2010-07-28 Thread mathieu jacquet

Hi all,

I'm running FM9 on Vista 64.

I downloaded WebWorks yesterday to perform some tests regarding an FM -> 
Confluence migration. Now, my FrameScript menu has disappeared and only 
Snag-It, Pubs-Tools (for the BookVars plugin), Tools (for Paragraph and 
Character Tools) and WebWorks menus are displayed. 

How can I easily manage such menus, for example to have the Snag-It menu (which 
I do not use) replaced by the FrameScript menu?

Thank you all,

Mathieu.

Do you get the FrameScript messages in the FM console on FM start?
Try to comment out your (WebWorks) plug-ins in the maker.ini in the
[APIClients] section.

No, I don't think so.

Map an FM template to another?

Sorry for the late chime in on this, but FrameScript includes a
paragraph mapping script that does this in the Samples directory.
Works well.

And FrameScript is on sale through the end of this week, 25% or so off, I think.

index sorting by numbers with decimal points

2010-07-28 Thread Rick Quatro
Hi Phoenix,

I use a similar algorithm, but in this case, you should be padding the just
portion before the decimal point with zeros.

9.3[009.3]
750.350[750.350]

I use a FrameScript script to do the padding so it is automated and
painless. If you can send me a sample document, I will give you a price on a
script. If you don't have FrameScript, the cost is 25% off this week. Please
let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much.

Using FM 9.2.

Is there an easy way to sort numeric index entries with decimal points...?
As the reference page exists, my numerics are sorted according to the number
appearing as the first number to the left of the decimal point - that
results in my numbers not sorting correctly. For example, 9.3 appears after
750.350 because 9 is larger than 0. My current fix is to pad with zeros the
numbers in my marker box by following the actual marker text with brackets
enclosing the number to be sorted with the padded zeros. For example,
750.350[75000350] and 9.3[9003]. My books contain up to 100 legal
statutory references and this process is tedious and incredibly time
consuming. Any ideas?

FM 8 Unstructured Converting to PDF: Lose some text, headings, bullets in PDF only

2010-07-28 Thread Art Campbell
First, you should also make sure that your system default printer is
set to be the Acrobat printer -- if it isn't, you could be working
with fonts that aren't available to you when you make the PDF -- if,
for instance, they're resident on a physical printer down the hall,
but not on your computer.

And ince you mentioned that you're on XP, an important starting point
would be to apply the PostScript Hotfix from Microsoft.
The write-up is at
http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2008/07/hotfix_for_framemaker_1.html
and the fix itself is at

FM 8 Unstructured Converting to PDF: Lose some text, headings, bullets in PDF only

The unresolved cross-references are a temporary phenomenon caused by the 
missing fonts. When you open File A, if it contains xrefs to File B, FM tries 
to open File B silently in the background just to check ("resolve") the xrefs. 
If File B has missing fonts, FM can't open it silently -- it needs to alert you 
and find out what you want to do -- so the xrefs are (for the time being) 
unresolved. 

Find and fix your font problem, and the xref problem will probably disappear. 
Art suggested one possible cause, but there could be others (especially since 
you have other books without that problem). After you tell FM to open a file 
with unavailable fonts, temporarily substituting an available font, look in the 
Console window to see what fonts are missing. If they're really supposed to be 
used, then you'll need to install those fonts. 

But if it's just some obsolete cruft that came from an old version of a file or 
something, you might want to turn off Remember Missing Font Names and make the 
temporary replacement permanent. Search the archives for "unavailable fonts" to 
find detailed instructions for that and a host of other ways to deal with 
missing fonts. 

You can search the archives using Google:

Utility to list all format details?

2010-07-28 Thread Pat Christenson
Hi -

I'm using FM9 and I'm wondering if there's a utility that will list  
all the formats, not just their names but also their definitions?

Thanks in advance.

Pat Christenson

The Format List module, part of Toolbox for FrameMaker, is excellent for 
this. Here's a link to the modules price list:
http://www.squidds.de/fileadmin/daten/pdfs/preislisten05_us/TOOLBOXfor_Modules_Pricelist_No5_Jan2010_USA_Squid_010210.pdf

More info can be found on the entire Toolbox here: www.toolboxforme.com. I 
find the site very hard to navigate, but the tools are good. You can 
download a 30-day trial of the entire Toolbox. After 30 days, a few of the 
tools are free and continue to work. The others, including Format List, will 
stop working until you license them.

Mike

Thanks, Mike. I'll check it out. I have their free tools.

Richard, I have Silicon Prairie Tools but they don't list the format  
definitions, just the names.
