I have to disagree with you there, RJ.

For me, 1990 through 2003 was the most enjoyable time as a FrameMaker 
user. The first two years on NeXT FrameMaker; the remaining on Mac 
FrameMaker.


Since Adobe killed Mac FrameMaker, it's been the most frustrating and 
depressing computing experience I can remember.


Good luck in your new job, btw.

Hi Bill,

Good to hear from you, too.  This is actually the third question  
about my .mac domain, but no, it has nothing to do with FrameMaker,  
it's actually one of those emails you get when you own a mac and  
since I was already signed up to this group using my personal email,  
I just kept it, but I will probably be updating my profile to reflect  
my adobe email moving forward.


Anyhow, it's good to hear from you and everyone else who's welcomed

Hello, RJ...I was wondering where you went off to. We communicated with each 
other when I was a beta tester for Robohelp for FrameMaker. Between you and 
me, while I have gone over to WWeP, I think RH4FM was a better product.

Anyway...I hope your presence will 1) do much to make FM more current, and 
2) help dispel the FM is dead chorus.

Good luck in your new position.

BTW...I too am starting a new position, with EMC, a rather large FM 
customer, so I have a professional stake is seeing FM prosper.

before Adobe bought FrameMaker), you are the first

Versioning software

2006-04-05 Thread Betty Labine
We use Perforce, and having had the occasion to use both CVS and
SourceSafe,
I completely agree with Catherine.

We used to use SourceSafe and CVS. They were okay. Then the company
changed
to Perforce, which I found so much easier to use and was a lot more
user-friendly.

FrameMaker Evangelist

2006-04-05 Thread RJ Jacquez

Hi All,

Just wanted to introduce myself to the group and share with you that  
as of Monday, I'm now the FrameMaker Evangelist for Adobe Systems and  
so I'm looking forward to contributing to this group and being as  
involved and supportive as I can to everyone who uses FrameMaker.


I have been a long-time fan of FrameMaker and a user since the first  
version of the product.  Along the way, I have spent many years  
delivering training on both Frame, Acrobat, RoboHelp, Captivate and  
other tools.  I also worked for Quadralay (makers of WebWorks) for a  
couple of years, and as Product Manager for eHelp-Macromedia (makers  
of RoboHelp) my team and I built RoboHelp for FrameMaker.


Anyhow, just wanted to say hi and let you know that several members  
of the FrameMaker team will be in the Adobe booth at the WritersUA  
conference, so if you are there, please stop by and say hello.  We  
will also be in Las Vegas for the STC conference, so I look forward  
to seeing you there as well.


BTW, we just posted the FrameMaker 7.2 try out software, so feel free  
to download it at: http://www.adobe.com/products/tryadobe/ 
main.jsp#product=22




Sincerely,

RJ Jacquez

Blank pages [WAS: Framers Digest, Vol 5, Issue 23]

2006-04-05 Thread Bodvar Bjorgvinsson
I think the problem here is that with technical manuals you are
addressing people of different ethnic origins, languages etc. Many
foreigners can read the "English jargon" they have learned that
relates to their jobs and interests, but may have problem reading
regular text or "jargon" relating to other technical fields such as
publishing and printing.

I have had questions from several people: "What does pagination mean?"

"Intentionally Left Blank" serves the purpose of indicating in words
comprehensible to most that there is no contents missing on that page
-- that the page is not blank by accident, s.a. duplicate paper feed
etc. So if we want to change this the text must be replaced by some
other text easily understandable by foreigners that have only minor
general konwledge in English.

Versioning software

2006-04-05 Thread Catherine Woods
We used to use SourceSafe and CVS. They were okay. Then the company changed
to Perforce, which I found so much easier to use and was a lot more
user-friendly.

If you want to get technical (and literal), sure it still is. It is 
necessary to remember context. The context of the manual is, let's say, how 
to install a wizzie. That page has no wizzie installation content, 
therefore, it is blank. The "Intentionally left blank" statement is only 
describing the state of the page, not the state of the content.

>Just two quick questions (FM 7.x , Windows).


Wim,
   Asking the questions may have been quick, but I'm afraid the answers 
aren't as quick as you might think. See below!


>1. After exporting to XML the Import of the same document gives validation 
>error:
>Message: Notation 'epsi' was referenced but never declared
>Where should this be declared, in the EDD, DTD or Rules file? On export

   The notation should be declared in the DTD; either in the external 
subset (the file often referred to as the DTD), or in the internal subset 
at the beginning of the document. Given the two lines you quote (the 
comment and the notation declaration), FM has done just that on export. 
Unless you have removed that line on import, I don't see why you are 
getting an error message.

   By the way, as I write this, I have no Internet connection and can't 
check, but if my memory is correct, XML public identifiers require a system 
identifier. Although FM does not report an error given:



I believe it is incorrect and should be at least:



I suggest you avoid the issue by adding:



to your DTD.

   And here is some relevant background. When you export a document that 
uses a notation that is not declared in the DTD, FM generates a notation 
declaration such as:



in the internal subset. Whenever you open an XML document that has notation 
or entity declaration sin the internal subset, FM uses a reference page 
called Entity Declarations to save enough information to regenerate those 
declarations. Information about notation declarations is saved in a 
three-column table. The notation name goes in the first column, the public 
identifier in the second, and the system identifier in the third. The table 
does not distinguish a system identifier that is present but contains no 
characters from one that doesn't appear. When both columns 2 and 3 are 
empty, it generates a public identifier, so the imported:



is exported as:



Again, avoid the issue by declaring the notation in your EDD.


>2. When exporting to XML, the reference to DTD is stored with full path

Good news, bad news on this one. There is a r/w rule that I believe should 
do what you want:

writer {external dtd is "komori.dtd";}

Unfortunately, FM assumes that the specified file exists in the same folder 
as the FM file being saved. Thus, the rule works if you save the XML file 
to that folder. Suppose, however, that you have a main project folder with 
two subfolders, one called fm and once called xml. If your FM file is in 
the fm subfolder, and you save it as ..\xml\output.xml. FM uses 
..\xml\komori.dtd as the external identifier. Since there's no need to 
store the DTD there, such a file is not likely to exist. Short of using a 
custom FDK client, the workaround is to keep both FM and XML versions in 
the same folder.

Blank pages [WAS: Framers Digest, Vol 5, Issue 23]

2006-04-05 Thread Bodvar Bjorgvinsson
I think the problem here is that with technical manuals you are
addressing people of different ethnic origins, languages etc. Many
foreigners can read the "English jargon" they have learned that
relates to their jobs and interests, but may have problem reading
regular text or "jargon" relating to other technical fields such as
publishing and printing.

I have had questions from several people: "What does pagination mean?"

"Intentionally Left Blank" serves the purpose of indicating in words
comprehensible to most that there is no contents missing on that page
-- that the page is not blank by accident, s.a. duplicate paper feed
etc. So if we want to change this the text must be replaced by some
other text easily understandable by foreigners that have only minor
general konwledge in English.
