Paste Lithuanian doc file into FrameMaker document

[Wim Hooghwinkel (Scriptware)]

Hello Lisbeth,

unfortunately there is no 'simple' solution for this, unless you can work on a Lithuanian Wondows system.

We have been struggling with this, same for other CE and EE languages.Problem is, FrameMakert does not support Unicode and it does not automatically take the correct character set from the Open Type fonts (Arial, Times New Roman).

Work around is to tweak the register and add some 'fonts' using the FontSubstitutes key. See below for the current key contents, this works for me. Notice the notation of the 'codepage' or set number after the font names. Basically it says: basic set of font named Arial CE uses set 238 from Arial (Open Type font). Now when you choose Arial CE from the FrameMaker font menu, it should display correct in FrameMaker. Same for Arial Baltic with Lithuanian text. The 0 (zero) in the left part seems to be essential.

HTH,


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes]
"Helv"="MS Sans Serif"
"MS Shell Dlg 2"="Tahoma"
