Hi Peter,
When you open a FrameMaker binary file with a text editor, it will
show the FrameMaker version of this file in the very first line. In my case:
MakerFile 10.0
How does your first line look like?
Best regards

This example demonstrates that Frame needs to use a standard format. I
suggest EPUB using XHTML5 and CSS3. Adobe might be pleasantly surprised that
they could successfully compete against Microsoft Word. This leads to the
question of what are the capabilities of Frame 11 to import XML schemas
FYI -- one of the hallmarks of FrameMaker is the stability of its file format
over the years. As with the others who have previously posted, I have opened
very old versions of FrameMaker (e.g. 3.5) in FrameMaker 9 while still in the
translation industry.
Incidentally, if you take a current or

Hi Framers,
I went into an older template file and wanted to try mapping some master

You can get the Reference Page you need by choosing Format Page Layout

Hi, guys...
Over the next few days, I'll be needing to insert hundreds of hyperlinks.
Right now, it is a three step process.
Copy and paste the hyperlink.
Highlight it, then select Special Hypertext Command Go To URL, paste
hyperlink all over again.

FrameMaker would be of zero use to me and many other people if they
changed their source format, since that would break all the add-ons
that make it valuable.
FrameMaker already supports (more or less) a standard source format, DITA XML.

Hi John,
FrameMaker 11 comes with the ExtendScript scripting environment built in. I
can probably write you script to automate the task. Please contact me
off-list if you are interested. If I can see a sample of what you are doing,
I can tell you what is involved. Thanks.

EPUB? Yeesh. I do books for print. The typography in EPUB is horrible. There's
no letterpacing in justified text. You get big, fat word spaces instead-- and
rivers of white. EPUB is just plain ugly.

Hi Rick, I did exactly that... new doc, format-page layout-apply..., then
imported my old doc's master pages (and everything else but reference

Now I just have to make the pages
What files are you trying to open on Windows. The Resource Fork or the
Data Fork?
It is possible that the two parts of the Mac file have become separated
on Windows and you are trying to open the file that contains no data.

I read "14 years worth of FM docs on the Macs" and skipped over "spend

It's more efficient to apply the character format before inserting the
hyperlink, since it stays highlighted.
I'm sure it's possible to automate that with ExtendScript or
FrameScript, or maybe with a free Windows keystroke macro recorder
utility.
