Frame in Windows emulation

I'm using FrameMaker 7.0 (and have verified that 7.2 also works) on 
CrossOver Linux Standard 6.1.0 (http://www.codeweavers.com) on Mandriva 
(kernel 2.6.22). Ubuntu would be very similar. There is a small number 
of features that do not work:
- Type 1 fonts
- 'Save as ...' PDF

http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/group/?app_parent=2361

FrameMaker 6.0 should also be OK.

I have not tried FrameMaker 8.0 on CrossOver. I would expect more trouble.

Kind regards,
Peter Ring
