RE: Updated: List of FrameMaker Bugs Issues / FrameMaker FAQ
Shlomo, Thanks for the link. At first I thought I was reading a list of bugs, but then I noticed that it says this is a list of fixes. Is there a list of known issues? I see a list of Top issues at http://www.adobe.com/support/products/framemaker.html. Is that all there is?

I see a list of Top issues at http://www.adobe.com/support/products/framemaker.html. Is that all there is? The http://www.microtype.com/FM_bugs.html list is organized as follows: each version/patch is in a separate section. At the top of the section are fixes to issues reported in previous versions. At the bottom of the section are issues which were experienced in that version/patch but not beforehand. Thus, if there is an issue from an older version and no fixes mentioned in any of the later versions/patches, then that issue still exists (i.e. known issue). The logic behind this method of organization is to enable you to see if a bug fix is relevant to your version or not. For example, at the bottom of the list, under FM5.0 (released 1994), the following few items are listed, among others: * Spell checker does not locate repeated words when they are not on the same line, or if their capitalization varies. * Hypertext markers and cross-references in hidden conditional table rows are carried over to PDF as active links. * Cross-references in text insets are not converted to active links These issue are equally applicable to FM5.5, FM6.0, FM7.0, FM7.1 and FM7.2 (even though they are not listed under these versions). This list could have been arranged differently (e.g. database-driven, with queries, keywords etc.), but I am afraid that it would have been too labor-intensive for me. Notice also that this list does not claim to include all known issues; I am dependent on the assistance of Framers' reports about both bugs and fixes, and on my availability.

I went through the list and didn't find a specific bug fix I've been waiting (and hoping) for. FM 7.0 tends to mess up equations when they are exported or saved to PDF. In my brief experiment with 7.2, the problem is apparently fixed. Since so much of our documentation includes equations (lots of them), I would like to recommend that my whole team upgrade to 7.2 to resolve this problem. However, I need to be sure that the problem is solved. BTW, the problem introduced itself in 7.0. 6.0 doesn't have this issue. Has Adobe fixed the problem with warped, stretched, smashed equations when going to PDF?
