[Framers] FM 11 / FM 14 compatibility

After 5 years of using Word, I get to use FrameMaker again! My colleagues are using FM 11, but the IT folks just gave me a link and license for FM 14. Can I save my work (FM 14) in .fm and .book files that my colleagues can use (FM 11)?

Regards,
Jim Marek

You need my ConvertDocs script. It works great and is cheap!

FrameMaker only allows doing a save as to one previous version (R-1).
Example: If using FM 14, the files can only be saved as to the FM 13
version.

If you use a script (I think Rick Quatro sells one, and I have a homebrew
version), you can save to any previous version of FM. It's only on the File
> Save As menu that you can only choose the previous version.

Thanks for all your advice and cautions. We decided to take the easy route and use FM 11 for compatibility within the project. If the situation changes, I will go back and review all the comments

Thanks again,
Jim Marek

Not true, as Rick and Lin's postings indicate. Extendscript allows saving to a number of previous formats. Extendscript only functions in versions FM10 and up, but, if memory serves (a big caveat), you can save back to at least v7.1. Of course, the use of any new features will be lost when doing that, so use the same template as the folks using your previous version to avoid that.

Craig

FrameMaker only allows doing a save as to one previous version (R-1).
Example: If using FM 14, the files can only be saved as to the FM 13
version.

I just looked this up in the pdf at https://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/pdfs/framemaker_scripting.pdf

There are a number of Properties listed that start with Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary60 (for FM6) and go to Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary110 (for FM11). The value used with each of these properties changes as listed in the table (pp121-122) and that results in saving a binary file of that version. I expect there are also values Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary for the newer version that have not yet made it into this Aug. 2018 release of the documentation.

Not true, as Rick and Lin's postings indicate. Extendscript allows saving to a number of previous formats. Extendscript only functions in versions FM10 and up, but, if memory serves (a big caveat), you can save back to at least v7.1. Of course, the use of any new features will be lost when doing that, so use the same template as the folks using your previous version to avoid that.

FrameMaker only allows doing a save as to one previous version (R-1).
Example: If using FM 14, the files can only be saved as to the FM 13
version.

I agree. But the values to pair those properties with are an open question (though trial and error might suss it out). The value use for v6-11 changes in this fashion:
11,12,13,16,21,23

At a guess I'd start with 25 for FM12 and 27 for FM13 and see if that works.

If Adobe maintains its pattern, then saving to FM12 would use
Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary120 and FM13 would be
Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary130.

Interesting. The script I have, which was created by a former coworker who
adapted it from something Rick used in his ExtendScript class, does not
seem to have any mention of the value pairing Craig mentions. It does work,
though. I have not tried to update it for FM12, FM13, or FM14, though.

(NB: not a scripter. my updates consist of copying blocks of code and
pasting them with things like Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary changed to what I
assume the new numbers are. I freely admit this may not be the best or
right way to do this, but FM seems to recognize the files saved to an
earlier format as being IN that earlier format when I try to open them in
the later version.)

At $24 Rick's ConvertDocs script is a steal and saves you having to worry about parameter values, error checking the script, etc. etc. etc.

When you use values like these in your script:

Constants.FV_SaveFmtBinary

they actually represent numbers. If you download and install the latest
FrameMaker FDK (free, but not sure the URL), you can see a list of these
constants in the include/fapidefs.h file. Somewhere around line 940 or so
you will see a list of these; here are a few of the entries:

#define FV_SaveFmtBinary100 21
#define FV_SaveFmtInterchange100 22
#define FV_SaveFmtBinary110 23
#define FV_SaveFmtInterchange110 24
#define FV_SaveFmtBinary120 25
#define FV_SaveFmtInterchange120 26
#define FV_SaveFmtBinary130 27
#define FV_SaveFmtInterchange130 28
#define FV_SaveFmtBinary140 29
#define FV_SaveFmtInterchange140 30
#define FV_SaveFmtBinary150 31
#define FV_SaveFmtInterchange150 32

You can use the raw numbers in your script, but the human-readable constants
are better. Of course after FrameMaker 12, the internal version numbers
don't match the marketing version numbers.

FrameMaker 2015 = 130 (in other areas 13)
FrameMaker 2017 = 140 (in other areas 14)
FrameMaker 2019 = 150 (in other areas 15)

I'm using the Find/Change dialog to search for markers. I select Marker -
Of Type: and then click the down arrow at the end of the blank field below
that. I'm presented with a history of my searches.

Is there a way to clear this history?

Thanks!

Doug

Yes, there is:

For FM 2017 and higher, the Find/Change history is strored in the user's maker.ini, which you can find here:

C:\Users\<Your Windows User Name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\<FmVersion>\maker.ini

In the [Preferences] section you can find the "FindStrings" and the "ChangeStrings" history:

FindStrings=HISTORY,FindString1, FindString2,etc.
ChangeStrings=HISTORY,ReplaceString1, ReplaceString2,etc.

You can change it to this to delete the history:

FindStrings=HISTORY,
ChangeStrings=HISTORY,

FM 14/15 (2017/2019):
Open the file %appdata%\Adobe\FrameMaker\14\maker.ini or ...\5\... and look into
[Preferences]
FindStrings =HISTORY, comma seprated list of at most 9 items
ChangeStrings =HISTORY, comma seprated list of at most 9 items

You can delete the comma seprated list of at most 9 items. It will be re-started at
the next Text search. The last used/entered is inserted directly behind the word
HISTORY,

Click on the row which has to be moved to the next page. Right-click >

This option can be used to move a particular row to the top of next
page/column/etc., based on the selection.
