RE: End-of-flow wildcard? [footnote to the Word/Frame/ligature story]
In e-mails from the authors, read here as pure text, ligatures such as 'fi' and 'fl' appear as 'I dunno' characters: blank squares. When pasted into FrameMaker, the ligatures render correctly. However, FrameMaker puts a word break around them: for example, double-clicking on 'flow' highlights just the 'ow' part. Running a global find/replace on 'fl' and 'fi' and replacing them with themselves, i.e. 'f' and 'l' or 'f'' and 'i' typed into the Replace box, fixes the issue: FrameMaker can find the ligatures and correctly replace them with the relevant two-character pair.

Re: Now OT, I suppose. RE: Adobe pricing policies (was: FrameMaker 12 released)
That's great as long as you use DITA. We use DocBook so FrameMaker XML Author (which should more appropriately be called FrameMaker DITA Author) is useless. Oxygen and XMetal have nothing to fear.

Also, at $400, I doubt if FrameMaker XML Author is going to be able to compete with other XML editors out there. The idea is fantastic, but the cost needs to be around $100-150 a seat. ___ You are currently subscribed to framers as bernyga...@rogers.com. Send list messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com.

Re: FREE TC CAMP Sat 25 Jan workshop Santa Clara, CA; world premiere live demo FrameMaker 12
Last CalL! TC Camp is TOMORROW at Mission College in Santa Clara, CA. TC Camp Exclusive: See Adobe's TCS5 in person and maybe win a subscription! TC Camp, the unconference for content creators, consumers, and the people who support them, is happening at Mission College in Santa Clara on Saturday 25 January 2014. I don't know if you've been to an unconference before, but they are very different from regular conferences. They are not juried. Sessions aren't presenter-decided topics. It's much more fluid and much more audience decided. All session topics are decided by the attendees on the day of the event. Everyone nominates topics; we vote on them together; and then, those sessions with enough votes get scheduled into the agenda. You can guarantee there is always a session happening that you're interested in. Unconferences are all hallway - like the hallway conversations you have between session at regular conferences. At an Unconference, you get the chance to work with other people to really wrap your arms around a topic and figure it out as it applies directly to you. The main unconference (afternoon) is Free. We have an expert panel to kick things off which Scott Abel is moderating. If you're interested, there are morning workshops that cost a modest $30. The workshops happen in the morning before the main unconference starts. There are 6 morning workshops to choose from that will help get the creative juices flowing: * Structured Authoring - lessons learned from the pioneers. Tracy Baker (F5), Wendy Shaffer and Amy Bowman (VMWare) will be giving advice for people learning DITA. All three of them were early DITA adopters and learned by fire. They are passing on their lessons learned so you can benefit from their experience. * Analytics - learn how to apply and interpret analytics to improve your content. You have a chance to hear from analytics folks (marketing folks) about some of the secrets of SEO and using analytics, it's a great opportunity. * Content Strategy - Strategy from the outside (your customer's side). Pam Noreault (ACI Worldwide) and Chip Gettinger (SDL) are presenting about thinking strategically about xml publishing projects. It's lessons learned, but from a manager's perspective. Pam's done it twice, and the second time she decided to rearchitect content from the Customer's Perspective. This is absolutely going to be a great session. * Responsive Design - learn how to improve your authoring so your content looks good anywhere. Mike Hamilton, from MadCap Software, will explain and show techniques for authoring and delivering of content that responds to the user needs whether they be handheld, mobile, or full screen PC so that it not only works from a responsive design standpoint, but increases usability and customer satisfaction. * Content Quality - improve authoring and publishing efficiency and the experience of your users. Doug Gorman from SimplyXML is talking about how to improve authoring efficiency, publishing efficiency, re-usability, and the experience of your information consumers. His workshop is doctype and tool-independent because these lessons apply universally. * Adobe - all about TCS5! This will be the first public showing of TCS5! Max Hoffmann will be here to give the world premiere demo of the product that was released on Tuesday this week It's an amazing experience - energetic, dynamic, and all about the attendees learning from each other. If you want to see what someone from the SF STC had to say about last year, he wrote up a review here for their December Newsletter: http://www.stc-sf.org/newsletter/2013-dec/tc_camp_2.html For more information about this year's event, the detail page is here: http://www.tccamp.org/2013/11/tccamp-2014/ I hope that we'll see you there!

Fm10 Tables and Change Bars
I have 6-column tables taking up dozens of pages, with each row containing only 1line of text. Due to the customer's request, I need to have the change bars appear as individual change bars beside each row, even along consecutive rows, rather than one solid change bar down multiple rows. Does anyone know how to force Fm10 to do this? I've used tables before where this was possible, but do not know which settings to adjust to make my current table's change bars behave similarly. I tried putting a paragraph return at the end of the text in a cell, then changing it to be a run-on punctuation so that the row doesn't grow. Then selected the changed text in another cell to apply the change bar, but it doesn't work. Once I mark 2 consecutive rows that way, the two change bars join and form only one when the display is refreshed, even with the hidden paragraph return.

Framemaker 12 third party vendor
Has anyone seen a reseller that is offering Frame 12 at a discounted rate compared to what is available on the Adobe site? Perhaps that is something that only happens months after the roll-out of a new version, but I have a limited budget to purchase Frame 11 licenses, which I can get for significantly less from a third party reseller, and I would love to be able to upgrade to Frame 12, now that it is out.

Can't get to either the Paragraph Designer or Character Designer
I was humming along very nicely with one of those tutorials until I hit a major snag. I was supposd to do something with the paragraph designer, and neither the tutorial nor the FM 12 User Guide was very clear on how to get to it. I searched on my own, and found the menu option Format - Paragraph - Designer, which looked like what I should select. So I selected it and -- nothing happened. At least, nothing appeared that I could recognize as the Paragraph Designer. The same thing happened with the character designer. So either I'm making some kind of error or something's wrong with my copy of FM. I hope it's my error and you can tell me how to correct it. ___ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com. Send list messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com.

Font issue in Framemaker 10, Windows 7, 64-bit
All, I am having a doozy of a time with fonts in Framemaker and I am hoping that if I provide a detailed description of the problem, someone can point me in the right direction. This SHOULD be Fonts 101, but I give. Here is the summary: * I have purchased four fonts directly from the font maker. The fonts are Breuer Text Regular, Breuer Text Regular Italic, Breuer Text Bold, and Breuer Text Bold Italic. * There are other fonts in this family with Medium in their names, such as Breuer Text Regular Medium, Breuer Text Medium Italic, etc. * There are 8 font styles in all in this family, and they are style-linked * I have purchased and installed only the four fonts that I listed in my first bullet. I have not ever installed any of the Medium fonts or any of the other fonts, so style-linking should not be an issue. * After installing these four fonts, I see this in my C:\Windows\Fonts directory - Medium, Medium Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Note that the Regular fonts are actually being renamed automatically to Medium upon installation. I did not do this manually. * When I open the top level Breuer Text font folder, I see four individual detailed font folders - one named Medium, one named Medium Italic, one named Bold and one named Bold Italic. * If I open either of the Medium folders, the file name in the title bar still reads as BreuerText-Regular. otf or BreuerTextItalic-Regular. * When I create a paragraph tag in FM named BodyItalic, I select Breuer Text as the Font Family, and then for the angle, I select Italic, which should just switch the Regular font with the Regular Italic font, but boom. . . the weight is also set to Bold immediately. For the weight characteristic, there is a Regular option, so I try to select that and click Update All, but the angle is immediately reset to Bold and I cannot change it. Anytime I try to set the angle for any paragraph tag that uses the Breuer text to Italic, FM automatically sets the weight to Bold as well. * I opened a Word doc., typed in some text in Breuer text, and then manually applied the Italic character. In Word, the text is only italicized. It is NOT bolded. I have to manually apply the Bold in Word. * If I use just Regular Breuer text in FM, and don't screw with the angle, the weight remains Regular. It does not get bolded. I have tried rebooting, clearing my font cache, rebooting again and I still this issue in Framemaker with this danged Breuer text. I tried uninstalling the Breuer text, clearing my font cache, reinstalling and still the same issue. The Regular text gets loaded and installed with Medium in the name in the Fonts directory and in FM., anytime I try to italicize a paragraph tag, it gets bolded as well. This is really screwing up my docs., obviously, as I don't want all italicized text to be bolded. Any and all advice is sincerely appreciated.
