installing Frame 8

2008-04-03 Thread Dave Reynolds
Thanks to those who have replied.  It might have seemed like an odd 
question, now that I know there are 2 discs.  However, we've bought some 
sort of corporate licence and all I have is an exe file that our IT 
people have provided - I assume they have downloaded it.  I will see if 
I can get hold of the actual discs etc.

Thanks

Dave

I do not really get what you mean exactly, but I cannot recall any  
problems with Acrobat bookmarks created from FM8 *unless* you compare  
it with non-Unicode hacks in previous versions.

In FM 7.x you could not (out of the box) have Cyrillic or Baltic or  
Greek headings appear correctly as bookmarks.

In FM 8 you can, as long as you use a Unicode font to create the  
Cyrillic, Baltic or Greek text.

installing Frame 8

2008-04-02 Thread Dave Reynolds
Hi Folks

I'm the first in our team who will install Frame 8 - so I'm the lucky 
guinea pig who will be testing our templates to see how they behave in 
the new version.

Although I've been keeping a record of bugs and problems reported on the 
list, I can't find anything about the actual installation (and 
FrameUsers is down at the moment).

So, are there any problems or gotchas I should be aware of before I 
install Frame 8?  I currently have Frame 6 and Acrobat 7 Pro installed.  
Will Frame 8 try to install a version of Acrobat (as happened with 
previous versions), and if so, can I cancel that so I don't lose my 
already installed Acrobat?

Any advice much appreciated.

Cheers

Dave

There have been issues related to FM8's UniCode support. One example I
recall is that some Acrobat Bookmarks are garbled by UniCode that
didn't appear in FM 7.x conversions does appear in FM8 conversions.

Whatever replies you get on this list shouldn't stop you from
searching the whole 'Net with Google or other tools.
