Saving Frame 10 files in batch to Frame 7

[Frank Elmore]

I'm not sure if this is a bug in Fm10 or if that is the way it is designed
to work. XRefAltText, XRefClientName, XRefClientType and
XRefSrcElemNoUniqueId are all properties that were added to FM in version 9.
However, when I used Fm10 to save an Fm10 document as Mif 7.0, the mif file
contains these invalid properties. This explains why you are getting those
messages when opening the Mif7 document generated by Fm10.  I tried this
myself using the FM10 UI (not FrameScript) and I get the same results.

 

As far as the bad links are concerned, are the files in the same relative
position? You might have to open a mif file using a text editor and look at
the <XRefSrcFile property of the <XRef to see where Fm7 thinks the file to
file link should be.

Subject: Saving Frame 10 files in batch to Frame 7

 

Dear Framers, 

 

Framemaker 10 + Framemaker 7.2 + Framescript 5.2R1p248

 

Am I correct that for saving Framemaker 10 files to Framemaker 7, in batch,
I need to pass by MIF7, right?

 

In Framemaker 10, I have a script that saves all my Framemaker 10 files from
a book to MIF7. 

In Framemaker 7.2, I then use another script to save a folder of MIFs to
FM7. I then get a lot of opcode errors in the console: 

 

(13362): Invalid opcode: XRefSrcElemNonUniqueId.

--- Skipping these characters:> ---------- Done skipping.MIF:
"C:\temp\xxx.mif" (13363): Invalid opcode: XRefAltText.

--- Skipping these characters:> ---------- Done skipping.MIF:
"C:\temp\xxx.mif" (13364): Invalid opcode: XRefApiClient.

--- Skipping these characters:< XRefClientName > < XRefClientType > >
---------- Done skipping.MIF: "C:\temp\xxx.mif"

 

The files then open with Framemaker 7 but links between different documents
of the same book do not work any more.

 

Can someone help?

 

Thanks in advance, 

Tom
