Hi group
I've got a FrameMaker file which was converted from a Word document. The
FrameMaker file contains the paratag [List Paragraph] but this tag is also
used by nested bulleted lists. Consequently, the autonumber format is as
follows:
•\t for top-level list items
o\t for second-level list
Yves' e-mail about scripting has reminded me of something I need advice about.
Until quite recently I was using the ancient FrameMaker 7 for Mac. Over many
years of working with it I had developed a series of custom toolbars and macros
for cutting the workload of book production, using
I just upgraded from Frame 9 to 12. It's a slightly different look, but I'm
getting used to that.
The one thing that there MUST be an explanation for, why doesn't a double click
on a graphic open the default graphics editor, and where do you define the
default. The right click 'Edit with'
Assuming you're in Windows, it's the Windows setting, not Frame
In W7, Control Panel Default Programs and either Associate A File Type
and/or Set Default Programs.

I know there must be an easier way to do this. We have a translation
agency that doesn't want to spring for FM12 upgrades to be compatible with
the FM12 docs that we create. For what we pay them every year... (but
that's another story). Instead, they want us to convert everything to MIF
(MIF12
OK .. couldn't resist. Try this ..
var doc = app.ActiveDoc;
// these para tags must already exist
var pgfFormat1 = doc.GetNamedObject(Constants.FO_PgfFmt, listitem1);
var pgfFormat2 = doc.GetNamedObject(Constants.FO_PgfFmt, listitem2);
if ((!pgfFormat1.ObjectValid()) ||
Frame has a number of sample scripts it ships with. If you install the one
for MIF washing, it will save all the files in the book.
This is a book-level utility, and you'll find it up in the toolbar under
Book Utilities once you've installed it (and you have the book open and in
focus).
On Fri,
Hi Yves...
The answer to your questions is .. Yes! :-)
If you're looking for the code to do it, that might take a bit more
time. Some generous developer might post the code for you, I'll provide
some pseudo-code ..
- iterate each paragraph in the document
- check the autonumber format
My advice would be to ask for copies of all your TM files and change LSPs!
I can give you some good recommendations.

Steve, have a look at AutoHotkey (http://www.autohotkey.com/). I have
no personal experience with it but a newsletter that I subscribe to
(http://webserver.computoredge.com/) has a weekly feature on it. If
you search the newsletter's archives for autohotkey you'll find
dozens of articles that
DZbatcher will let you write a batch file that will do that.
