The common format was for image previews in FM documents, regardless
of the platform or graphic format. Without a FrameImage, a graphic
that couldn't be previewed would appear as a gray box placeholder on
screen, but would reproduce correctly when output.

FrameImage (was Equation Editor Issues)

Question: What does "Save  FrameImage with Imported Graphics" do?
Answer: Back in the early days when FrameMaker was a true cross-platform tool 
that would allow you to work the same Frame file on Windows, Mac and various 
flavors of Unix, FrameImage was an equilizer giving you a common format across 
the three platforms for imported raster images.
While you could probably still use it with mif, etc. I doubt that many need it 
today. FrameImage is mostly an artifact. Turning it on will bloat your file 
sizes and give you little or no benefit.

Question: What does "Save  FrameImage with Imported Graphics" do?
Answer: Back in the early days when FrameMaker was a true cross-platform tool 
that would allow you to work the same Frame file on Windows, Mac and various 
flavors of Unix, FrameImage was an equilizer giving you a common format across 
the three platforms for imported raster images.
While you could probably still use it with mif, etc. I doubt that many need it 
today. FrameImage is mostly an artifact. Turning it on will bloat your file 
sizes and give you little or no benefit.
