RE: Bookmarks don't stay set

2012-09-28 Thread Reng, Dr. Winfried
Hi Gillian,

What do you mean with they don't stay set?
Do your paragraphs disappear in this dialog?
Obviously not, if you delete them.

I noticed that sometimes my PDFs are created without
bookmarks. However, when I open the PDF setup dialog
with the Bookmarks tab and just click OK, they are created
correctly the next time.
I did not notice any rule yet. My impression is that it's because
the file was created with older FrameMaker versions.
I run FrameMaker 10 on Windows 7, 32 bit.

Best regards

Winfried

Subject: Bookmarks don't stay set

I am using Frame 10 in TCS 3 and have a problem that I did not have in Frame 7, 
8 or 9.

When I print to PDF, I set up my bookmarks in the PDF Setup dialog, but they 
don't stay set. Every single time I print to PDF, I have to delete all of the 
other bookmarks that it puts in that field. It takes a long time to get rid of 
them all. What is the deal. I never had this problem in previous versions.

Re: Response from Adobe - Print to .PS issue - Cause and solution

2012-09-28 Thread Scott Prentice
I wish that Adobe would do away with this structured/unstructured switch 
.. I think it causes more confusion than it does any good. All it does 
is remove the StructureTools and Element menus and a handful of UI 
elements from the structured interface. I think it would be better to 
provide an easy way to hide/show the menus of your choosing rather than 
using this mode switching.


It's perfectly safe to work on unstructured documents when the 
structured mode is enabled, and allows you to work on all types of 
documents.


Also, if there was just one mode, it would make testing much easier .. 
I'd think.


Cheers,

...scott

Re: save as... FM 8 Mif

2012-09-28 Thread Chris Despopoulos
It's starting to get weird, how often this subject keeps coming up.  


First, Maker 10 MIF should not have any problem opening up in Maker 8.  So 
there's no obvious need to actually produce Maker 8 MIF.  (Unless your work 
flow demands that the MIF actually be version 8.)  


Second, I have a free plugin on my site called SafetyMif...  The idea is that 
whenever you perform a save operation, the plugin also saves a MIF version of 
your file.  So you could open a book, hit Save All In Book, and you would have 
MIFs for all the files in the book. Then save the book, and you have a MIF for 
that.  

To easily open the files in Maker 8, you grab a dir with all the MIFs, and any 
referenced files.  Then change the filename extension for all the doc files 
FROM .mif TO .fm.  Then open the book, open all files in book, then save all 
files in book...  For saving the files, you'll have to confirm overwriting the 
mif files (they all say .fm in their filenames) with binary.  It so happens I 
also have a freeware tool for changing the filename extension.  


You can find this stuff at cudspan.net...  Go into the professional pages, and 
look for freeware tools.  The SafetyMif plugin is in the Maker 11 and 10 
sections.  The file extension tool is in the Java section.  


Good luck!

Re: save as... FM 8 Mif

Thanks Nadine,
I'm sure that mif 8, 9 and 10 are the same format regarding opening it in
previous versions of Framemaker.
In my case, however, I need a mif not to open it in FM but to use it in
translation workflow in Trados.
I'm not expert with Trados, but the agency say me that their specific
version of Trados works fine only with mif 8 files.

Ciao, Mario

 Hi to all.
 A customer of mine ask me to save a lot of FM 8 e FM 10 files, in MIF 8
 format.
 Because this is optimized for translation workflow.
 I have FM 10 and I could save in MIF 10 or MIF 7 directly.
 
 
 I read about the possibility to save directly in FM8 or MIF8, using
 scripting.
 Could someone help me? It's about, perhaps, a free script?

RE: Bookmarks don't stay set

2012-09-28 Thread Keith Soltys
I am having the same problem with FM10. My Acrobat version is 8.1.

I go to create the PDF, set up which paragraphs I want as bookmarks, and create 
the PDF with the appropriate bookmarks in the file. I go back to the book later 
to recreate the PDF and my bookmark settings are lost and I have to recreate 
them. It's painful, given the awfulness of the PDF settings dialog (come on 
Adobe, surely you can at least give us multi-select!).

It doesn't happen with all my books, but does with most of them. I haven't 
figured out a pattern yet.

Re: Bookmarks Don't Stay Set

2012-09-28 Thread Oran Petersen
Reading between the lines, your problem may be where you are doing the settings.
This now works similar to a standard printer setup. If you wish to change the 
default settings, you must do it from the printer control panel. If you wish to 
change the defaults for a specific job, you it from the print dialog prior to 
printing. These do not stick.

For PDF settings from a FrameMaker book, to change the defaults, go to the book 
menu: FormatDocumentPDF Setup. Make your desired default settings, click set, 
and then SAVE THE BOOK. Now your chosen default settings will appear each time 
you Save As the PDF (or print/distill).

If you make changes from the print dialog prior to printing, they will not 
take, even if you save the book. Next time you will again see the defaults. I 
think this is what is happening to you. I am not certain, but I think this 
change may have been made with Version 10. Previously the settings would stick 
if made from the print dialog box before printing, if you saved the book.

On a slightly different topic, since we do not need color separations, spot 
printing, or any of the other higher end print operations, we find that Save As 
PDF works much better than print/distill. As mentioned recently, printing to a 
ps takes many times longer and bloats the file size. With Save As we do a pdf 
file from a 1000 plus page frame book in less than 2 minutes with no issues.

In doing troublshooting for a large company, I find most pdf issues are caused 
by two errors:
1. Attempting to print to other than the Adobe PDF printer. Will not work for 
creating a pdf. Period.
(I have seen a couple of threads in the forum recently that infer that this is 
what they are attempting)

2. Acrobat corruption triggered by attempting to simultaneously install 
multiple versions of Acrobat, including Pro vs Reader. This has been cleaned up 
some in the later installs, but I still see it frequently. You must fully 
uninstall all versions of Acrobat and then reinstall only the one version to 
avoid this issue.

The *only* way you can make MIF 8 is with Frame 8.

Another good reason to upgrade from FM 9, 10,

upgrade.  They definitely did under their TLP
(Transactional Licensing Program), which anyone
can use to purchase Frame.

If Trados isn't supporting versions later than 8, 
that would be a showstopper for many users...
but if the agency simply has an older version of 
Trados, you might need a different agency.

Anybody know if Trados does support versions

Obviously not, if you delete them.

Response from Adobe - Print to .PS issue - Cause and solution

2012-09-28 Thread Scott Prentice
I wish that Adobe would do away with this structured/unstructured switch 
.. I think it causes more confusion than it does any good. All it does 
is remove the "StructureTools" and "Element" menus and a handful of UI 
elements from the structured interface. I think it would be better to 
provide an easy way to hide/show the menus of your choosing rather than 
using this "mode" switching.

It's perfectly safe to work on unstructured documents when the 
structured mode is enabled, and allows you to work on all types of 
documents.

Also, if there was just one mode, it would make testing much easier .. 
I'd think.

Cheers,

...scott

save as... FM 8 Mif

2012-09-28 Thread Chris Despopoulos
It's starting to get weird, how often this subject keeps coming up.? 


First, Maker 10 MIF should not have any problem opening up in Maker 8.? So 
there's no obvious need to actually produce Maker 8 MIF.? (Unless your work 
flow demands that the MIF actually be version 8.)? 


Second, I have a free plugin on my site called SafetyMif...? The idea is that 
whenever you perform a save operation, the plugin also saves a MIF version of 
your file.? So you could open a book, hit Save All In Book, and you would have 
MIFs for all the files in the book. Then save the book, and you have a MIF for 
that.??

To easily open the files in Maker 8, you grab a dir with all the MIFs, and any 
referenced files.? Then change the filename extension for all the doc files 
FROM .mif TO .fm.? Then open the book, open all files in book, then save all 
files in book...? For saving the files, you'll have to confirm overwriting the 
mif files (they all say .fm in their filenames) with binary.? It so happens I 
also have a freeware tool for changing the filename extension.? 


You can find this stuff at cudspan.net...? Go into the professional pages, and

Separate question: I have a version of a document that describes your CUDspan

Thanks Nadine,
I'm sure that mif 8, 9 and 10 are the same format regarding opening it in
previous versions of Framemaker.
In my case, however, I need a mif not to open it in FM but to use it in
translation workflow in Trados.
I'm not expert with Trados, but the agency say me that their specific
version of Trados works fine only with mif 8 files.

Ciao, Mario

Bookmarks don't stay set

2012-09-28 Thread Keith Soltys
I am having the same problem with FM10. My Acrobat version is 8.1.

I go to create the PDF, set up which paragraphs I want as bookmarks, and create 
the PDF with the appropriate bookmarks in the file. I go back to the book later 
to recreate the PDF and my bookmark settings are lost and I have to recreate 
them. It's painful, given the awfulness of the PDF settings dialog (come on 
Adobe, surely you can at least give us multi-select!).

It doesn't happen with all my books, but does with most of them. I haven't 
figured out a pattern yet.

Need ideas - Moving large files from one folder to another without breaking links

2012-09-28 Thread Abungu, Salome (TTI Mpls)
Does anyone know of  a program that will allow me to move several files to 
another folder without breaking links to graphics in other folders? We've 
imported graphics by using the "import by reference" option instead of copying 
the graphics to the document. We've done this because copying the graphics into 
the document bloats it. Our manuals have been created by several writers over 
the years. I have hundreds of files to move but haven't done it yet because of 
this issue. I could open each book file and FrameMaker files and just archive 
them but again, there are hundreds of these things to move.

Any ideas are certainly appreciated.

Have a great weekend!

Are you selecting all the files in the book and then doing PDF Setup
for all of them? That works fine for me. If the files don't all have

The *only* way you can make MIF 8 is with Frame 8.

Another good reason to upgrade from FM 9, 10, 
and 11 to FM8.  I believe Adobe now allows that
upgrade.  They definitely did under their TLP
(Transactional Licensing Program), which anyone
can use to purchase Frame.

If Trados isn't supporting versions later than 8, 
that would be a showstopper for many users...
but if the agency simply has an older version of 
Trados, you might need a different agency.

Anybody know if Trados does support versions 
later than MIF 8?

2012-09-28 Thread Alison Craig
My Language Service Provider (LSP) uses Trados and I use FM9 and there are no 
problems, so this isn't a Trados issue. 

It's likely an LSP issue - when I moved from MS Word 2003 to FM9, I simply told 
my LSP that they needed FM9 - which was brand new at the time. They didn't balk 
in the least. They just upgraded to FM9.

2. Click Format, Document, PDF Setup.
3. Click the Bookmarks tab and make your bookmark changes.
4. Click Set.

Hope this helps,

Need ideas - Moving large files from one folder to another without breaking links

I'm not sure what you're saying.

You're moving graphics files from one directory to another while
leaving the FrameMaker files into which they're imported by reference
in the same place?

If so, are you moving all the files from one directory to another?
