Modifying color defintions in Framemaker 7.0
Hi listers, I am facing inconsistent color definition issues and have tried all the solutions provided by the listers and others on the Web. Nothing could resolve the issue. I now want to know how do I change the color definitions? In the color definitions dialog the Add and Delete options are disabled so am not able to modify or delete the defective color. Any suggestions? TIA Garnier ___ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com. Send list messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com.

RE: Missing text insets that aren't missing
Well, after who knows how many unbillable hours, my book is finally clean. I found that at least two text insets and one chapter that didn't have insets were causing the odd unresolved text inset problems. After meticulously recreating every offending chapter (about four in total) and text inset (just two), I've gotten everything cleared up. It's not been fun, but it's been a learning experience. I still don't know what really caused the problems, but I guess I need to be more careful and use new, pristine files when I create a new book. ~ Linda G.

To get rid of the unresolved text inset complaints, I completely deleted the all text insets in the relevant files, including the paragraph tags to which they were attached. Then I reinserted the P tags and text insets. That did the trick for me. The P tag issue was important as I found that deleting all the text insets - without reinserting them - then updating the files still resulted in complaints about unresolved text insets.

Both the original book and the new one use lots of text insets. In the new book, I've replaced every text inset from a new location. When I create an LOR, all the insets are coming from the correct folder. When I search for unresolved text insets, I find none. But, when I update the book, 3 files always come up with unresolved text insets. I notice that the book errors show a path to the original file for the old book for these 3 files, but I can't find anything pointing to that folder. When I open the 3 files, no error messages about unresolved text insets. I've tried the following: * I opened one file as a mif and searched for the old folder/book file name. I found just one instance in an xref. I didn't think that was the cause of this. * Created a whole new book file, added the chapters, updated, same unresolved text inset messages after updating. * Washed all files via MIF. No change. * Opened a blank file, copied all of a chapter into it, and updated with the newly created chapter. No change. Anyone know where FM is storing the old folder/book name information and how to expunge it? Of course, I'm on a deadline. Thanks!! ~ Linda G.

Re: Extracting art from Word docs
Here a solution that David Creamer gave (http://www.IDEAStraining.com): "If the file is Word 2007 (and presumably 2010), you can make a copy of the file, change the extension from .docx to .zip. Uncompress the zip and the graphics (Word optimized and originals) will all be in a media folder. (This works for PowerPoint 2007 too.) I have not tried taking a Word 2003 file and saving it as 2007 to process this way, so I don't know if it will work or not."

RE: Extracting art from Word docs
Note that there's no particular reason why you need to make a copy of the file and change the extension. If you launch WinZip and choose Open, the dialog you see will display all file types (including .docx, .docm, and .dotx) by default. In other words, you can open the Word file directly from WinZip and then extract any of the content contained within the normally hidden folder structure. Extracting the graphics from the Word file does not change the contents of the Word file in any way. You'd have to explicitly delete (or add) files using the WinZip UI to change the file from Word's perspective; extract files is a completely non-destructive operation. -Fred Ridder Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 16:16:21 +0200 From: shmue...@gmail.com To: thomas.scal...@crossmatch.com Subject: Re: Extracting art from Word docs CC: framers@lists.frameusers.com Here a solution that David Creamer gave (http://www.IDEAStraining.com): If the file is Word 2007 (and presumably 2010), you can make a copy of the file, change the extension from .docx to .zip.

Re: Extracting art from Word docs
Hi Thomas, I've had to do this on a number of occasions and the method I prefer is to save the Word doc as an HTML file. Word then creates a separate folder where it places all the images, both re-scaled for web and original imported size. So mind which ones you choose.

RE: Extracting art from Word docs
The WinZip technique only works for the new Microsoft Word formats (.docx, .docm, .dotx rather than .doc and .dot) that were introduced in Office 2007 and continued in Office 2010. These file formats all contain a collection of XML text files and graphics objects that have been zipped into a single wrapper. Word 2003 was still the era of the monolithic binary file format and Word 2003 files *cannot* be opened with WinZip regardless of the filename extension. If you open a Word 2003 .doc file in Word 2007 or Word 2010 it will initially keep the file in compatibility mode, which is not the zip-type file. Even if you specifically save it in Word 2007 .docx format , it will not necessarily handle the graphics the same was as if it were a native Word 2007 file. All of which leaves you with the other two methods of extracting graphics if you are starting with a Word 2003 or older file. -Fred Ridder Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 17:02:31 -0700 From: mkrupp...@yahoo.com Subject: RE: Extracting art from Word docs To: framers@lists.frameusers.com; docu...@hotmail.com Thanks for the good advice, Fred!

Extracting art from Word docs

Extracting art from Word docs
Note that there's no particular reason why you need to make a copy of the file and change the extension. If you launch WinZip and choose Open, the dialog you see will display all file types (including .docx, .docm, and .dotx) by default. In other words, you can open the Word file directly from WinZip and then extract any of the content contained within the normally hidden folder structure. Extracting the graphics from the Word file does not change the contents of the Word file in any way. You'd have to explicitly delete (or add) files using the WinZip UI to change the file from Word's perspective; "extract files" is a completely non-destructive operation. -Fred Ridder Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 16:16:21 +0200 From: shmue...@gmail.com To: Thomas.Scalise at CrossMatch.com Subject: Re: Extracting art from Word docs CC: framers at lists.frameusers.com Here a solution that David Creamer gave (http://www.IDEAStraining.com): "If the file is Word 2007 (and presumably 2010), you can make a copy of the file, change the extension from .docx to .zip. Uncompress the zip and the graphics (Word optimized and originals) will all be in a media folder. (This works for PowerPoint 2007 too.) I have not tried taking a Word 2003 file and saving it as 2007 to process this way, so I don't know if it will work or not."

I use Microsoft Photo Editor. You can simply select the graphic you want, copy it and paste it into Photo Editor with no loss of quality and you also have multiple formats to save it as out of Photo Editor.

Extracting art from Word docs
Wish I'd known about this about a month ago!
Two questions:
Does the technique of changing the file extension to .zip require that the
graphics be imported by reference, so they exist as separate files when
unpacked?
Using the MS Photo Editor, I get 96dpi files (IOW, screen captures), which are
not adequate for my purposes.
Thanks,
Marguerite

First, note that it is *not* necessary to change the filename extension. All that is necessary is to open it with a tool like WinZip that looks past the extension to see what's inside the file itself. Second, the word/media folder you will find inside the Word file will contain a graphic object for every graphic in the document whether it was pasted, inserted by reference, or embedded as an editable object. Graphics that are in a vector format (WMF, Visio objects, etc.) are in the word/media folder as .emf or .wmf objects, and raster graphics seem to be in .png format. I was just working on a document that had a mixture of pasted vector figures, pasted raster images, and embedded Visio drawing objects, and all of them were present in the word/media folder. Third, if the graphics were imported by reference you'd already have spearate external files for each one, so there seems to be little point in extracting another copy from the Word document. -Fred Ridder -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The WinZip technique only works for the new Microsoft Word formats (.docx, .docm, .dotx rather than .doc and .dot) that were introduced in Office 2007 and continued in Office 2010. These file formats all contain a collection of XML text files and graphics objects that have been zipped into a single wrapper. Word 2003 was still the era of the monolithic binary file format and Word 2003 files *cannot* be opened with WinZip regardless of the filename extension. If you open a Word 2003 .doc file in Word 2007 or Word 2010 it will initially keep the file in "compatibility mode", which is not the zip-type file. Even if you specifically save it in Word 2007 .docx format , it will not necessarily handle the graphics the same was as if it were a native Word 2007 file. All of which leaves you with the other two methods of extracting graphics if you are starting with a Word 2003 or older file. -Fred Ridder Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 17:02:31 -0700 From: mkrupp...@yahoo.com Subject: RE: Extracting art from Word docs To: framers at lists.frameusers.com; docudoc at hotmail.com Thanks for the good advice, Fred! I'm with you on all but the last point. Unfortunately, this is one of those legacy docs that has a long and checkered history. It was originally done in PageMaker 6.5, and it was only through a series of gyrations and extractions that I got a Word doc at all. No source art files, nobody left to tell the tale! I tried changing the extension, but I have only Word 2003 at work, and WinZip wouldn't buy it. Will have to try it at home with a more recent version, but I do see your point. Will try more maneuvers tomorrow. This list is such a great resource! You've saved me enormous amounts of work so many times!

First, note that it is *not* necessary to change the filename extension. All that is necessary is to open it with a tool like WinZip that looks past the extension to see what's inside the file itself. Second, the word/media folder you will find inside the Word file will contain a graphic object for every graphic in the document whether it was pasted, inserted by reference, or embedded as an editable object. Graphics that are in a vector format (WMF, Visio objects, etc.) are in the word/media folder as .emf or .wmf objects, and raster graphics seem to be in .png format. I was just working on a document that had a mixture of pasted vector figures, pasted raster images, and embedded Visio drawing objects, and all of them were present in the word/media folder. Third, if the graphics were imported by reference you'd already have spearate external files for each one, so there seems to be little point in extracting another copy from the Word document. -Fred Ridder -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

F8 & F9 to show catalog formats
Prompted by Steve Johnson (thx) - I should have noted: FM9 Win XP 3G of memory The dropdown is on the Status Bar - where the popup used to appear. The contents of this e-mail are intended for the named addressee only. It contains information that may be confidential. Unless you are the named addressee or an authorized designee, you may not copy or use it, or disclose it to anyone else. If you received it in error please notify us immediately and then destroy it. When I press F8 / F9 I see a dropdown in which I can type the first few letters of the format I want to apply. However, I used to see a popup list of catalog formats, and I cannot figure out what I have done to make the UI change from the popup to the dropdown. I've tried many combinations of settings in the View Menu and the Preferences/Interface with no avail. What do I need to do to see the popup again? -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
