FM-14 (2017) does not show Help > Help Topics

0
0

Dear all,

Although there is $home\HelpViewer.exe and $home\HelpCfg.ini on my system (w7 x64, FM-14.0.3.500) - the Help function does not work. Neither F1 nor selecting from the menu does anything.

Double clicking HelpViewer.exe correctly opens the online-help for FM-14 aka 2017.

 

Command Help in cmds.cfg is the same since years:

<Command Help   <Label Help Topics...>   <KeySequence \!fh>   <Definition \x302>   <Description Open Help...>   <Mode All>>

 

Yes, there are some plug-ins and ExtendScripts, but as far as I see they do not manipulate the menu.

If I recall correctly there was an issue with HelpViewer.exe at the early versions of FM-14. Hence I had a copy of HelpViewer.exe from Fm-13 in use - but for the current release (build 500) the HelpViewer is OK.

 

What may be the culprit?

Drag and Drop Files FrameMaker 2017

0
0

I am finding that drag-n-drop of files in FM 2017 behaves differently than in 2015. I want to place a PDF file (an image), non-anchored, on a blank page, without affecting text flow (we aren't using text on these pages). In 2017, it creates an anchored frame and/or jumps the image to a new page and/or replaces the previous image. Is there any way to change the way drag-n-drop of PDF files into FM behaves?

New PC, should I deactivate license on old PC

0
0

Because of a corrupted and unfixable McAfee installation, I'm having to get a new PC. Our IT folks have installed most of what I need and are letting me install and configure the rest of my software before I switch over to the new PC.

 

I'm running FrameMaker 10 under Windows 7. FrameMaker on the new PC seems to be running OK and isn't complaining about the license. Should I deactivate the license on the old PC when I am finished, or just leave it to be formatted? I'm worried that if I deactivate the license on the old PC, it will kill off the one on the new PC as well.

Add page number to first page of chapters (Edited for brevity)

Page numbers do not appear on the first page of new chapters. Continuous page numbering is spot-on, but I want to be able to see the page number in the footer of EVERY page, including the first page of a new chapter in the book.


Using font pod: Replacement of missing fonts in multiple files at once possible?

0
0

Is there any way (or available scipt) to select multiple occurrences of the same missing font displayed in the font pod at once for replacement? The font pod only seems to offer selection of one font for replacement at a time, but selection of multiple entries of the same font in the list would be a great help.

 

I have multiple files with the same set of missing fonts that need to be replaced permanently. Since the font pod already shows a neat list of the missing fonts for all open files: Is there any way to select multiple occurrences of the same missing font and replace it with the same font at once?

 

It takes hours to do this for each file and each font, and changing and importing formats or using "update all" is not an option.

 

It's unstructured FM, and I would be able to use FM12 to FM2017 to work with.

 

Thanks for any helpful suggestions.

Unbrauchbare Bilder in HTML5-Ausgabe

0
0

Hallo Community,

 

ich habe ein Problem bei der Ausgabe in HTML5.

 

Wenn ich im FrameMaker 2017 ein Bild einfüge und dann das "Dokument" als HTML5 ausgebe, klappt alles wunderbar. Sobald ich aber im Framemaker im

verankerten Rahmen des Bildes etwas über das Bild lege, bspw. einen Pfeil oder eine Beschriftung, dann wird das Bild so stark runtergerechnet und komprimiert, dass es unleserlich, verschwommen und unbrauchbar ist. Nehme ich die Overlays wieder weg sieht es wieder gut aus.

 

Weiß jemand woran das eventuell liegen könnte und wie ich da Abhilfe schaffen kann?

 

Danke schonmal!

Unusable images in HTML5

0
0

Hello community,

 

i have a problem with FM 2017.

 

I want to export a FrameMaker document to HTML5. I am using images in anchored frames with annotations and symbols, like arrows. Both, the image and the annotations, are in an anchored frame.

 

The HTML5 export downscales all my images with annotations and arrows, so they are not usable anymore. They are so pixilated, you can´t identify anything.

When i am removing the annotations etc. the images look nice.

 

Is there anyone who can help me?

 

Thank you!

Set the table continuation variable to right-justify automatically?

0
0

I normally insert a paragraph break, (the table title paragraph tag is set as a run, left-justified) and then right-justify the variable by hand, so that the variable is on the same line as the title and ends at the right edge of the table header..

 

Is there any way to set this variable to right-justify automatically using Framemaker 2015?

 

Thanks!

FM 2017: the Table Designer will not change the background cell color in the header row. I can change it with the Custom Ruling and Shading but I want to change the Header background color for all of the tables in the document.

FRAME MAKER 8 activation.

0
0

I had FRAME MAKER 8 running on my Windows 10 laptop.

As I had to perform a clean installation of Windows, I tried to deactivate FM 8. No option worked.

After reinstalling Windows 10, I contacted adobe support (Luciana) in order to activate FM 8. After one month of emails, she told me that the Adobe technicians told her that FM 8 does not work in Windows 8.

Obviously that is a lie, since I had it working previously. Any help on this?

footnote-placement on a page with sideheads

0
0

Happily trying to recreate a typescript from the 1960s which makes thoughtful use of margins, and I've hit a snag I've never seen before: one page has

  • a title (which I've set using Across all columns and sideheads)
  • body text (In column)
  • footnotes for body text (In column)
  • the unusual construct of a footnote with the call-out at the end of the title.

 

FM12 is rendering the footnote on the title as Across all columns … while I'd prefer to match the original and have _all_ footnotes In column.

 

Any ideas?

What is the best way to add a image with caption?

0
0

Hi there

 

I'm trying to add an image with a little text below.  The best way I found is adding an anchored frame at insertion point, inside it I add a text frame (in this frame I write the text centered) and inside it I add another anchored frame at top of column and centered with the image.

 

Is there something easier? I need to place the image anchored in most cases.

 

Thanks a lot
