I have had that error message when importing XML files in FrameMaker 8.0p277, and it appears that one of FrameMaker's structured documents (for entity formats?) hasn't been updated for a while.
To resolve the error message: 1. Launch FrameMaker and select File > Open Specify the file: %PROGRAMFILES%\Adobe\FrameMakerX\Structure\entfmts [where %PROGRAMFILES%\Adobe\FrameMakerX is the FM install folder] [Note: remember to backup files!] 2. Click Yes to the warning that it is a FrameMaker7 document, and also the missing fonts dialog. 3. Click in the margin area, and then Select Formats > Characters > Designer... 4. Select the character tag: FmDingbats 5. Change the font family to an alternative [I used Courier New] 6. Click Update All 7. Select File > Save Maybe Adobe will remember one day to update template documents? Regards // Simon BUCH
