Hi, Richard:
Perhaps I missed it, but I don't believe you described what, if any,
work you did with customizing the output of FM's HTML export, nor what
specifically you found unacceptable in the conversion. There is some

Dennis,
Windows has two versions of maker.ini:
1. There's a system-wide version in \Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker 7.x.
2. There is a
One caution:
if FrameMaker is running when you edit the .INI file your changes will
be lost when you exit Frame.
FM loads the ini settings into memory on startup and rewrites the file
on exit so that things like the last files opened list, customizable
zoom percentages, locations of windows, etc.
Here is another possible solution that doesn't require editing maker.ini.
Open the marker dialog. Even though you can't see it, it's probably there.
Press Alt+Space. This is a Windows shortcut that gives you keyboard
control of windows and dialogs.
Press "m" (for move).

Do you have any ideas of what the possible cause is (other than
"something in the Word file is corrupted"), as well as possible fixes

FrameMaker 8 does NOT support right-to-left languages (Arabic,
Farsi, Hebrew) other than display and entry of their Unicode
characters. This is not true "support."
And Hebrew is not a "Cyrillic language." :-)

Another thought. Is there Word art used anywhere, or any graphics
that have been drawn within Word? These use proprietary compression
algorithms, which may be decompressed to illustrate their true size.
Or, are there special characters (say, embedded math) that are being
converted graphics?

It would be great if the future FM versions support the Arabic / Persian

Presently, we are forcing the FM to create Arabic language by using a
