[cw-discuss] file associations for WordPerfect and FrameMaker

[Bodvar Bjorgvinsson]

Hi Paul,

Sorry to burst in on you with a somewhat different question but it is
good to hear that someone other than me is using FM this way.

I am wondering whether you have found a solution to how to pdf (save
as, or print to file and then use Acrobat Distiller 7 to distill).
This process seems to me to be necessary in order to get all the
goodies going that FM natively supports. I suppose you have Acrobat 6
or higher installed too. Do they work together as intended?

I have not done much testing, but I have found FM 7.1 to behave
somewhat different in CXO older version (4?) than in Windoze. What is
your experience?

Also, have you tried to use FrameScript in CXO?

Thank you,

Bodvar Bjorgvinsson
