Re: Can FrameMaker versions 9 and 7.1 co-exist on the same machine?

2010-03-23 Thread Brad Anderson
Gary,

I've got 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 8.0 and 9.0 on my virtualized Windows XP machine with 
no issues.  I run several plug-ins including FrameScript and PatternStream in 
each version (also without issue).

Thanks,

Brad

Hi Gary

I've got Fm 9, 8, 7.2, 7.0 and 6, all on the same computer (XP, SP3). And
sometimes, I've got multiple versions running at the same time. No problems
here.

Just make sure you test Save as/Print to PDF. This may be a problem,
depending on your version of Acrobat.

Cheers

 Yes you can run multiple versions of FM on the same machine, but only the 
latest copy of Distiller. Make sure that you clean out all versions of 
Distiller before installing the new one.

Subject: Can FrameMaker versions 9 and 7.1 co-exist on the same machine?

Hi everyone,

My company is thinking about purchasing FrameMaker 9. We currently use 
FrameMaker 7.1. Management would like writers to have both versions on their 
machines as the transition is made, if possible. I don't anticipate actually 
running the two versions at the same time.

Are there any problems with doing this? We run Windows XP Professional (I'm not 
sure if we are all on the same version/SP, but probably). I have version 5.1/SP 
3.

Does anybody have any experience with this?

Thank you!

Gary

I've installed two different versions with no problems in the past.
Just specify different install directories.
