After awhile, my paragraph designer will simply stop working. I
On Win XP and now Win 7, I use the Windows Character Map (Win7 - Start
Accessories System Tools) to find the character. You can copy and paste
into FM (6 or 9 that I know of) or the Windows Character Map gives the ALT
sequence that can be entered into FM.
I currently have TCS2 (FrameMaker 9). I am seriously considering upgrading
to TCS3 (FrameMaker 10), However, many of the people that I work with will
continue using FrameMaker 9.
Can FM9 and FM10 users work on the same document with having to go through
a FM10 save as FM9 limitation?
Thanks!

The European languages I inherited open fine in FM9. Their cross
