We recently (as in the beginning of this year) upgraded to FM2015. I think I'm going to add Alison's checks / process to my final processing. I haven't had colors show up, but I have had issues with text that has conditional tags either showing up (or not showing up) inappropriately.
And hope I remember what is supposed to be visible. I may have mentioned that this damned thing is VERY complicated, although I have, finally, gotten conditional expressions that control things properly and are actually fairly elegant (after having used the BFME method first).
