Re: FM on a Mac
Can you have Frame installed under each OS, but only 'authorize' the one you want to test, then de-authorize it and authorize the next one to test? Or can you test them as trial versions? I doubt that you'd get a single software install to share across multiple copies of Windows, even VMs on a single host. I'm sure Adobe wouldn't want that to work.

Re: Ventura encoded text files + some extra rubbish
Ah, another Venturian! (well, I was, but haven't done any work with it for some years now) Re VMs: I like VirtualBox, because the VM can have access to USB devices, like scanners and such. Microsoft's offering, AFIK, doesn't do that. Regards Jay On 4/26/2012 2:28 PM, Jacob Schäffer (Grafikhuset) wrote: Over the years I've had quite a few conversations with Gabor Jahn, Allan Shearer, Abe Hendin and Paul McGee, to which Jay Maechtlen's FAQ link refer in many of the FAQ answers. These folks have done a great job and I can still see their wisdom engulfed in passionate Ventura flames. Consult the Ventura News Groups if they still are alive. These guys have all provided plenty of useful information to the Ventura communities. If one has the option of installing Ventura 10 and is able to apply the official and *very* important VP10 patch the only reasonable thing to do with pre-Venrura 5 documents (i.e. 4.2 and older) is to open them in VP10, modify the para-styles as required (typically only font references and perhaps tracking/kerning fail), and then, page by page, check that hyphenation is OK (which it most likely isn't - especially if you work with a non-English (ie. non-en-US or non-en-GB) languages. If you are on Windows 7 don't fight the VP10 Installer. It IS possible to make it run and install VP10, but it's waste of time. Use a VM-Ware (or similar virtualization method - perhaps the MS Virtual PC, which is free) to run a Windows XP session with Ventura 10. THAT will work for you. In my view we today have MANY products that can do ALMOST the same as Ventura Publisher in regard to automated publishing books. We have NONE that CAN do the same with regard to automating such bests, and not even InDesign can deal with for example text frames with different column widths in a text frame nor with automatically created vertical column lines, that match the height of balanced text, automatically feathering space above headings etc. Ventura did that from version 2.0 run under the GEM platform in 1988-89, and still do in VP10, of course. I think Ventura died because document portability was extremely poor and the leaning curve was too steep. Sad! Anyway, from time to time I still use Ventura (10.0 with patch applied) on some occations, and have just made a 416 pages book ready to print in 3,5 hours with Ventura. The ability to just load "tagged" TXT files marked for "Export on Save" on the fly simply outmatch other technologies because of ease of use, simplicty etc. - if you know the "how to". If you still have VP 4.X books alive, then keep them in VP format. NOTHING else makes sense unles you are willing to undertake a huge amount of superfluous work. I loved Ventura, but I also love newer technologies for their fantastic integration with PDF, non-EPS artwork and image handling etc.. But these "packages" still have a bit to learn from Ventura in many regards, even though for example the latest FrameMaker, at long last, beats Ventura on some fronts. It took almost a human generation for FrameMaker to provide usefull CMYK/Spot color support. It's here now, and most critical, it also works OK now - at last. The first CMYK attempts with Adobe trying to get off lightly by implementing an outdated Linux kernel (Level 1 based PostScript) was a total disaster, and exporting the FM development to India didn't exactly make it easy to find common development ground with internal Adobe colour experts. Anyway, the FM10 (latest edition and patch level) does a great job with commercial CMYK/Spot colors owing to third party input (Arnis Gubins and friends - thanks Arnis for unifying the strength of third party collaboration !!!). VP10, FM10, FM10 ten years after VP10 ten years after Xerox VP. There's a lot of 10's to keep tally of here, isn't there :-) Well, I'm actually writing all this rubbish just to anounce, that my colour conversion products "Colour Chameleon", "CMYK PDF Creator" and "Publi PDF" is becoming freeware licensed under some sort of GPL as a single product named "Grafikhuset Publi PDF". All of these variants have helped FrameMaker users all over the world for years in preparing coloured FM documents for commercial printing via PDF since January 1996, where the first International English "Colour Chameleon" was released. We have now closed the on-line activation service (hosted by InstallShield - Flexera), and licensed products can NOT be activated anymore.

Re: 8.0.1 patch availability?
Sorry, false alarm. TCS1 installs 8.0 p266 I tried Adobe's updater first, but it fails - claims no updates available, but failed to update itself. Thanks!

I reinstalled TCS1 (new hdd on laptop) and looking for updates/patches. Adobe has all 8.x patches in one location - except the first. Any suggestions? The later patches won't install without the first.

thanks from long time lurker
Actually, I hardly even lurked, as I almost never used Frame. But my new gig has me working in Frame 9, among other things. And I couldn't get the dumb PDF to show the printers marks. A quick search in the folder where I keep all these messages, and I had an answer - turn off the "generate Acrobat Data" setting, and voila - printer marks. Thanks!

Re: Mif2Go suddenly failing on all machines
Sometimes it seems like Win 7 decides to protect a directory? And you can huff and puff, but it keeps applying some accursed attribute... you can create a directory in some safe location (or copy a known functioning directory), rename the cursed directory, then copy the good directory to where you need it, and it will (may?) keep its usablility. I went through this a while back -then you can copy the files of interest into the fresh directory, etc I expect there's a better way, but this is Good luck!

If a file is blocked, then you see it in the Properties > General dialog under Attributes. If it is not blocked, then there's blank space there. I figured out how to unblock the one that kept reblocking itself (by copying it ot the desktop and unblocking it there, then copying it back) but that did not fix the issue. I searched this afternoon for duplicate DLLs and found none. I may reinstall Calibre and then uninstall it with a more aggressive tool - I am open to suggestions.

Re: [Framers] Hmm, so do I renew???

If you wish to keep your subscription active, you must provide your billing information and set up automatic monthly payments. So according to this, my subscription has already expired a day ago, but apparently it is expiring in 7 days. In the meantime, Adobe has debited my credit card another month’s subscription, today. I wonder, should I even renew? I hardly use it nowadays and Adobe do not fill me with confidence.
