Unicode support of FrameMaker 8
Hi all, I would never recommend using special chars in FM file or format names, but found the following issue with FrameMaker 8.0p266 (that worked in FM7): Clicking on the following hypertext marker results in an error: "message system explorer C:/Program Files/Adob?" (although the folder exists, of course). If the folder does only contain ASCII chars, no error occurs. Shouldn't FrameMaker convert the internal UTF-8 string to ANSI with "message system" commands? Also, the QuickKey command does no more work with formats containing non-ASCII chars: "F9, B" does preselect "Body", "F9, ?" does insert an Udieresis into the document. Note that the localized version of FrameMaker also uses default format names containing special chars, e.g. "?berschrift 1" in the German FrameMaker. If they won't consider any UTF-8/ANSI/Keyboard layout conversion, the char shouldn't at least be inserted into the document, imo ... Kind regards, Klaus
