That is indeed what I always do.
In fact, in light of the difficulty TCs often have getting input, I do whatever
necessary to get comments,
I either send a PDF to get write up, which is easiest, if necessary I send
word, I give people paper print outs, and some people even send me comments in

OK...I'm making progress, but not there yet. It seems that FM will create a
file for every file it marks up, with the initials CMP in the file name. I
can open that file and view the insertions and deletions.
However...it does not create a book with the files. I need to gather up all
the CMP files
Hi! I am working in FM10. I have a series of Master Pages that I use for my
company's publications. I need to update an address that appears in the text of
one of the Master Pages. When I work on a publication that uses that Master
Page, I can open the Master Page and make the correction. Howeve
There's no such thing. FrameMaker doesn't have a template feature. You
can import the updated master pages from that file into the other
files, provided the master pages are identical.
To update something in one place and have the change appear in
multiple documents, use text insets.

Hi -
We have a new employee and her FrameMaker license is for 2017. The rest of us
are on FM 12 but will be upgrading, although I don't know when.
I looked at the 2017 user guide and it says you can save as 2015. It doesn't
mention 2012. I just want to verify this with the group before I write
I would suggest using a User Variable for the address and add that to the
Master Pages. That way, you can update the Variable's Definition and the
Master Page content will be updated.

You can save as MIF 7.0 (*.mif) but some functions or content may change on
the way out. Best to do a test run. However, you can open with FM12 once you
do this. Your mileage may vary though depending on what you have in the
files.

You'd still have to update the variable in every file.

And that is why I would recommend BookVars from Leximation ... my most-oft used
tool for FrameMaker.

Thanks, Bernard. I wanted to be sure before I document Save as MIF. Hopefully,
it won't be long before we are all using the same version.

Just do a SaveAs Mif. Don't use SaveAs Mif7. SaveAs Mif will save to the
current version being used. Opening in your older version will just discard the
code that is not interpretable by that version. If you are editing in both
version your template is not using new features anyway.

I've actually got an ExtendScript that saves to MIF8, MIF10, MIF11, and
MIF12, as well as to FM8, 10, and 11. I think it's based on one of the
example scripts Rick shared a few years back, although I've expanded it to
additional MIF formats. It adds a drop-down to the menu bar that works with
both
Personally I'd ask Adobe for another license for FM12 so the new hire
could be on the same version as everyone else until you all upgrade.
If you save as MIF, choose MIF 2017. When importing MIF, older
versions of FrameMaker will simply ignore any newer tags they don't
recognize.
Saving as MIF 7.
