FM9 broke some keyboard shortcuts but in FM11 they work again. (I skipped over 10, so I don't know about 10.) The only thing is that the first time after opening FM, when you use certain keyboard shortcuts like F9, there is a few second delay. After that it's fine and all of them work, F8, F9,

There's no upgrade pricing from 7.2 to FrameMaker 12, but there is for TCS 5. So the price difference is only $200. On Tue, May 12, 2015 at 4:11 PM, Craig Ede wrote: > upgrade to from FM7.x to FM12 $800 > upgrade from FM 7.x to Technical Communications Suite $1200

Fundamentally, unstructured FrameMaker has changed very little. I've opened FM6 in recent versions and had zero problems. New features have been added but old things all work pretty much the same. FM8 switched to Unicode. Anything using the old Zapf Dingbats that was bundled with FM will need to b

Hi Caroline, I recently did this same upgrade (going from FM 7 to FM12). The learning curve was not bad. Mostly, it's getting used to a totally new (and way better, in my opinion) user interface. I recommend taking the FrameMaker 10 essentials course that is in Lynda.com. Adobe changed the UI a

You can now create all those from FM12 directly; however, the learning curve will be a bit of a shock - the UI changed completely starting in FM9. I think at 7.2 you're over the Unicode barrier already so fonts may or may not be an issue. Some finer control over the publishing (generating) of he

It's been so long since I have been using Frame 7.2 that it's hard to comment about a learning curve. Certainly, some of the basic stuff hasn't changed much (sigh) but there have been a lot of interface changes and some usability improvements. I think you will have to convert to MIF. You may wa
