Re: Character format that won't stick
Hi Thomas, Your problem sounds similar to one I experienced earlier this year. I wanted to apply an italic character format to my cross-reference formats but also found it wouldn't stick. Eventually, I discovered that the font family I was given did not include an italic format. To resolve this, I set my default printer to be Adobe PDF, and have not suffered from this problem since. This is because the PDF drivers use PostScript fonts which FM can use if the the font family used does not support it. If you try setting your default printer to a PDF driver of some sort does that resolve the problem? HTH. Sam.

Still stuck on Mif2Go, deadline approaching
A week from today I am supposed to present this project to the CEO. I have half the content that I need, but then FM/Mif2Go stopped working and since then I am at a dead stop. The issue is that Mif2Go no longer runs, with this error: Mif2Go failed for file: C:\Project\ActifioConnector.xhtml type 1, code 2, at: Wed Aug 27 14:17:30 2014 Could not run DCL filter or other program. File not found. A recap: I author my content in FM12 Unstructured, about 12 books for each release. After generating a round of PDFs, 1. I use FrameScript to import a new online-only template and get the docs ready for online use. 2. I use FrameScript again to configure some markers that will be used in the HTML. 3. I use Mif2Go to generate XHTML output. 4. I go back to FrameScript to do some magic on the XHTML and produce the files that will be imported into our Salesforce knowledgebase. I have done this many times. I showed it at the STC Summit in Phoenix. I was doing it on 12 August when it suddenly stopped working. It stopped quite suddenly. At 2:11pm it worked and at 3:04 pm it failed. In between I used FM12 to output a different, successfully finished doc to ePUB, then I updated Calibre and used it to generate the .mobi so I could view the eBook on my Kindle. That worked. Then I went back to the Mif2Go conversion project, and Mif2Go has not worked since then, always stopping at the same place, always showing the same type 1 error. According to the computer's event logs, nothing else changed at that time. I uninstalled Calibre and still failed. I reinstalled it and then re-uninstalled it with the more powerful Revo Uninstaller. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Mif2Go completely, and then FrameMaker as well. Today I reinstalled Mif2Go again. My environment variables are good, my path is good. According to the error message (there's nothing of value in the logs), some critical file cannot be found or maybe cannot be executed. I have checked every .exe, .ini, and .dll, including the two in fminit\Plugins (one of which was updated in January for FM12). Everything is unblocked and has full permissions. I have used Mif2Go for over 10 years and I have always been able to solve its inevitable glitches, but this one has me stumped. I'd love any clues, and I am will to share my desktop via a Skype session with anyone who can help (or at least give it the ol' college try!)

Re: Still stuck on Mif2Go, deadline approaching
Hi John That is excellent news. I don't use Mif2Go myself, but I have been following this thread. On 2 occasions in the past we have had problems with our company anti-virus software interfering with how FrameMaker worked. In one case the AV software was scanning certain types of graphic (imported by reference from the network) before it would let FM display them - FM was taking minutes to display graphics, instead of seconds. In the second case, when FM tried to import a referenced graphic from a network drive, the AV software decided to scan the entire folder that contained the graphic, before it would let FM display it, resulting in similar delays. Both cases required our IT dept to make global changes to the AV software set-up. Regards Dave John Sgammato wrote, on 28/08/2014 6:54 a.m.: A Hail-Mary pass seems to have succeeded!
