Hello Verner,
Tag Editor has an option to move markers to the start of a segment, you
don't need to do that manually.
For your other questions: the 'normal' procedure for translating FrameMaker
books is indeed to use the source folder structure as base, first translate
the FrameMaker files and
Is there a reliable file comparison tool out there that I can use to
compare versions of a manual, either Frame books or PDFs. I need
something that will not get confused when there are large deletions or
reorganization. Is Acrobat's comparison tool reliable enough for this?

Hi Shmuel:
Beyond Compare 3 converts a PDF to text and compares the text. I've heard
that it does a better job than Acrobat's comparison tool, which has a
tendency to hang and shows you irrelevant things like different page
numbers. I've used Acrobat's comparison tool and it can get confused
Hi,
Not so. S-Tagger can manage the markers with a simple configuration,
but if you leave them alone, you get something like this:
this is:imk 1 a word :imk 2with a ma:imk 3rker
It's better to manage the markers and not subject your translators to
half words, but the letters are still there.
The following will work if you have if you are working in, or have
access to, a unix or linux environment (eg Cygwin) then its relatively
easy use a sed script to make the changes on saved .MIF version(s) of
the affected file(s).
Each line of your sed script would be something like this:
Hi Charlie,
We had a similar problem directly related to Microsoft Office software.

likelihood that opening an e-mail through Outlook, opening/creating a

We're looking for a freelancer for a single assignment who has a strong
working knowledge of Adobe FrameMaker. We have a trade publication laid
out in FrameMaker about seven years ago. We've revised it (in Word) and
need the edits
How about saving the files as MIF and using a search and replace tool
that works on text files to change the path? Notepad++ has a global
search and replace for text files.

Hi,
not sure, but if ever you've got a split word, a second same sentence won't
appear as a repetition of the first, but as a No Match (new segment), and
you'll pay more as well:
For example :
1. this is:imk 1 a word :imk 2with a ma:imk 3rker is :
8 No Match. Cost = 8 x rate per word
2.

highway robbery. For example, they do not allow you to upgrade from an
older version; instead, you pay the full price. I had webworks

upgrade path for that
Hi Pat,
For the most part, I agree with your rant. I got off the Webworks train
years ago because I couldn't afford to keep up with each new version and
upgrade. As a consultant, there is only so much software I can buy without
regular paying jobs to support it. Omsys, makers of MIF2Go, are
