Okay, I just did some testing ... the CMYK bug at Acrobat PDF output is NOT
fixed in FrameMaker 12.0.4 as far as I can tell.
My output PDF still shows the problem, although I cannot tell anymore if some
things were fixed, since I deleted my old test output files.
FWIW, I do get a lot of error m
I have just run the demo version of Parallels Desktop 10, and found that my
FrameMaker 12 install, which worked fine in the Win7 virtual machine under
Desktop 9, would not launch when the VM was run under Desktop 10.
I've reported this to Parallels, but it occurs to me that it might be a

I had a similar experience with Flare 7.1. We had a really, really
long list of table-related PDF bugs.

I tried unsuccessfully a year ago to move from FrameMaker to Flare. After
months with tech support to deal with various bugs in Flare, I concluded that
it was only a reasonable option for simpler documents that were destined for
web based delivery. PDFs particularly, were not as reliable as FM.

I haven't used Flare actively in a year or so... but after several years
daily experience, I'd say:
- Fewer bugs -- nope
- Better conversion -- depends. I use MIF2Go to get to HTML/RTF/XHTML.
Flare isn't better than that. FM 12 is pretty good for exporting. Flare is
adequate or better
Thanks for the warning, Steve. I know Word files can be difficult to manage
and easy to abuse. For example, my experience has been that many if not most
Word users don't use Word styles properly (assuming they even know they exist).

Both native RTF from FM12 and Mif2Go Word export will work to a certain extent,
but unfortunately both can have major shortcomings depending on the nature of
your content.
1. FM12’s save as RTF drops all index markers that have been placed in
footnotes. An absolute deal-killer if you ind
Hi Steve
Very amusing, but only to those observing. I'm sure we all have similar
horror stories. Mine was a 75-page RFP that Sales said "has to go out
this afternoon". The future of the known universe depended on it. The
sales guy had fiddled, and it had blown up, so he passed it to me. By

Hi,
In my company there are also discussions to choose
MadCap Flare as a common authoring tool.
I see different requirements among us. Some need
HTML or CHM, others only PDF.
The arguments from MadCap Flare users here are:
o Less bugs.
o Better conversion to CHM and HTML.
o Better support.

Interesting, Craig!
I had reported the CMYK thing on the Adobe bug base, and I got a mail from them
saying the issue would be fixed in the next update (12.0.4) and indeed my PDFs
do generate OK again now.
Looks like there was more than one layers of broken-ness in this area and the

As I noted on the Adobe Forums, I was personally told that 12.0.4 fixed this
bug by the developer who was handling by bug report,
and it does indeed seem to,
but this is not mentioned in the release note.
This suggests that it was such an egregious bug that Adobe decided not to
acknowledge that i
