<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hi Framers,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I am presently using structured FrameMaker version 8 on Windows XP. (And we seem to have lost the original software disks.) Writing commercial airlines manuals using a template created for FrameMaker 6. And using SDI
software to create the cgm graphics from eps files.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have not had any problems using the template but plugins do not work. I have not tried to output as XML so I don’t know how that will go. I have only been using FrameMaker for a little over a year and am the only
TW in my company. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">My company wants to move me off of XP to Windows 7. And is looking to upgrade the FrameMaker to either version 10, 11, or 12. (These are the versions they can find to buy legal licenses with.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Does anyone know if there will be any issues with a template created for FrameMaker 6 running on these newer versions? Since I am fairly new to FM I don’t cause myself extra grief.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have opened a file (that I created in FM 8) in a trial version of FM 12 and it looks okay but I don’t know if there are things going on behind the scenes. Are there things I should be looking for?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">What issues might I have?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
