Dear Framers,
The FrameScript development team has developed a calendar generating FrameScript script that we are providing as a free holiday gift to all our customers. If you have FrameScript then simply download the file and follow the simple instructions to create a new 2011 calendar in FrameMaker. In fact, you can use it to create a calendar of any year you wish. Use the data file feature to place text items (such as birthdays, holidays and special events) in any day of the year. You can even add your own images or use the ones that come with the script. If you don't have FrameScript, you probably know someone who does. Create your own data file and have them generate a calendar for you. The calendar generating script will generate a calendar (in FrameMaker) for the specified year. There is an optional data file (in .INI format) where you may place text (up to 3 lines) for any day of the year (such as birthdays or special events). A sample data file is provided. The formatting for the calendar comes from a template which you may modify to suit your own tastes, although changing the font sizes too much might affect the output. Also, there are 12 images (one for each month) that comes with the calendar. You may replace them with your own (6.4" wide, 1" height) or remove them entirely. The source code for the calendar is included, so you modify it with your own ideas. After downloading the file, create a new directory (folder) and unzip the file into this new directory. Use the FrameScript "Run..." menu command to start the calendar.fsl script. Follow the instructions on the screen. Happy holidays!
