A FrameMaker 8.0 patch has just been downloaded onto my computer and I am now at Version 8.0p273. This is the patch that is supposed to fix the PDF hyperlinks in web documents. I have not yet checked to make sure that my FM8 now generates hyperlinks properly, but you need to be aware that *there is a minor problem* in the downloading and installation of this 273 patch. It downloads itself while one's local FM8 is active, and then when it notices that one's FM8 is active, it asks permission to close FM9. If, however, one at that point gives it permission to close FM8, the patch will *fail to install*.
This new patch will install properly but you will need to get your FM8 closed on your own initiative while the download process, which takes several minutes, is still underway -- *before* the patch installer generates this pop-up window asking for permission to close your FM8.
