Turkish Characters Don't Display

[Bernard Gagne]

Hi Ed,
Frame 7.0 didn't support Unicode. As I recall, when we were faced with a similar problem, we had to perform some registry editing to get Frame to see Arial TUR. You'll have to search online for the coding because it's been long enough I've forgotten how we did it. Even there, because Frame allocates certain key codes to internal functions, some letters consistently mapped incorrectly and had to be edited manually.

Hi Ed,
 
What version of FrameMaker are you using? FrameMaker 8 and above supports Unicode. If you are using FrameMaker 8 or above, you should use a translator that at least matches your version.

Here is some more information from my translator.
 
- FrameMaker 7.1
- Windows Vista Home Premium
 
- Turkish text is being transfered from TTX (Trados) format to MIF. The characters get lost in the transfer. We found a font called Arial TUR for FM. Once we have the text in MIF, we change the font to Arial TUR and it is working.
 
- Destination paragraph style font is Arial TUR. Check and see that you have Arial TUR in your list of fonts for FM.
 
Thanks,
Ed Lightle

Hello.  My translation vendor is using FrameMaker to translate English documents to Turkish.  But he has the following problem:
 
I am transferring Turkish text to the FrameMaker file, and I am losing some Turkish characters.  For example, the “ğ” in the word “değildir”.
 
Any idea why this is happening?
 
Thanks,
