Fix.. RE: Windows XP

[Dmitri Yunov <yudmi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, people. 

If someone needs the Frame 6 work under Windows XP and has a crash when FM
opens a document that contains unresolved links to graphics, he/she may
contact me off-list for the workaround details.

Many frame people have asking me last six months about the workaround for
this crash. The workaround presents last few months.

The workaround is simple and based on the same technique as the tuning and
customizing of an analog of Frame's fmsgml.ini/maker.ini preferences in
Macintosh platform.
Without doubt, the crash has happened die to the FrameMaker very small but
critical bug only, not because of the MS dialog API error.

PS. I already informed Lee Richardson and Dov Issaks about two week and half
about this workaround.
I would dislike quoting the answer I have got from Lee yet, just let's hope
the Adobe "New Downloads" web site page for FrameMaker would help soon
against this crash.

Regards,
Dmitri.

It's a known problem with Windows XP.

To my knowledge, there is no fix. Maybe Microsoft is
working on one? I know Adobe is working on a new
version of FrameMaker, I would expect that new version
to be fine with WinXP. Have you tried moving the
missing graphics to the expected location?

Cheers,

Sean

... indeed you will need a patch for this.

"they" work extremely hard on this since months. maybe they will fix
this with WinXP Service Pack 6 or FrameMaker 7.

Betreff: Windows XP

I am using FrameMaker 6.0 with Windows XP.  Does anyone know if there
are
any patches that I need for XP.  I find that I am getting quite a few
internal errors when I am trying to open a file that has imported
artwork.
If I select skip importing file my document crashes.  Does anyone have
any
ideas?
