Adobe announces FrameMaker (2015 Release) -- first steps with Arabic (RTL)

[Harsh Gupta]

Hello Tino H. Haida,

We would like to understand bit more on the trouble you are facing while translating the content from RTL to LTR. Therefore, can you please elaborate by giving some examples.

Thanks for reporting the issue. For time being as a workaround, you have to set the document direction manually, after creating the document from RTL template.

Thanks!

Dear Maxwell,

thank you for this announcement and for the many new features of FM 2015, of course.

I bought a subscription license and just made the very first steps to use FM 2015 in our XML-based workflow for Arabic documents. The conversion to Arabic looks very well. Only changing the direction from RTL to LTR (with the setting of bidi-markers) is different to Indesign and not so intuitive and handy.

One point where there might be a small bug:
Although the structured template is set to "Document > Direction > RTL", my new FM files based on this template still are set to "LTR"... It seems that this new property is not correctly transfered during the structured workflow (unless I am missing sth ...).

Best regards -- Tino H. Haida, Berlin

Looking at the version comparison, the additions for unstructured FrameMaker in English are:



- conditional table columns

- book-level conditional text

- web help custom "skins"

- auto-insert table continuation variables

- mini-TOCs



Still no wiki integration.



I'll be curious to see how well the conditional table columns work.

That seems like a major challenge.
