Help, anyone got FrameMaker 5?

2007-05-31 Thread Gordon McLean
I've been asked to re-work an old document and the source docs are in
FrameMaker 5. No problem, I thought, as version 7 should just upgrade them
but...
 
I'm getting errors and can't open the files. I can't decide whether the ZIP
files have been corrupted, or whether it's a FrameMaker issue and as my
predecessors seemed to have binned the old version 5 CDs (or hid them very
well!) I'm kinda stuck.
 
Any suggestions? Is version 5 available to buy anywhere? I can't find a
source for it at all.

Help, anyone got FrameMaker 5?

2007-05-31 Thread Paul Wilbraham

Gordon

I do have a copy of FrameMaker 5. Would you like to send me one document and 
I will try and open it for you - on the grounds that you do not wish to 
purchase the s/w if the docs are corrupted.


Best regards

Gordon, you can try the open heroic command: Tap these keys 
in sequence - Escape o H (uppercase H). If it opens and is 
readable, save it to a new name and proceed working with it. 
If it fails, it's most likely that the file is corrupt.


FM 7 should open files as far back as FM 5.

Thanks to all who responded both on and off list.

Turns out the files themselves are corrupt, so looks like I'll be reworking
them from HTML into FrameMaker... Joy.

Much appreciated everyone, favours are owed!

Gordon

P.S. Lest anyone think otherwise, I haven't been active on the list recently
because... Umm... I suspended delivery when I went on holiday and forgot to
turn it back on... Doh.
