Loosing document from FrameMaker book

When I import/link a FM book, one document does not get generated as topic. RoboHelp does display the chapter icon under the link in the Project manager, and also indicates the status (green, yellow needs update..) but no topic is present there.
Is there any specific content that prevents the importing/linking process?

RoboHelp does not generate a topic for a particular FM file if the topic to be generated does not have any content. In other words, blank topics are not generated by RoboHelp during conversion from FrameMaker. Please make sure that the chapter has some content to be converted to RoboHelp topic.

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Pdf created from FrameMaker book using FDK is of bigger size

Hi,
I am new to FrameMaker, when trying to generate a pdf document from a FrameMaker book using FDK, the size of the pdf file created is big when compared to the pdf created using “Save As PDF” from FrameMaker. I have tried setting Named Destinations to false and also “PDF Job Options” to “Smallest File Size”.
Below is the code we use to create a pdf file using FDK
//Open the frame book to process document by document
bookId = OpenFile(strFile);
/* Get docId in order to set Acrobat Bookmark levels */
docId = F_ApiGetId(FV_SessionId, FV_SessionId, FP_FirstOpenDoc);
F_ApiSetInt(FV_SessionId,bookId,FP_PDFBookmark,True);
F_ApiSetInt(FV_SessionId,bookId,FP_PDFJobOption,6);
/* Sets "Body" to the highest Acrobat Bookmark level. */
pgfId = F_ApiGetNamedObject(docId, FO_PgfFmt, StringT("Body"));
F_ApiSetInt(docId, pgfId, FP_AcrobatLevel, 1);
F_ApiSimpleSave(docId, name, False);
/* Sets the save parameters so as to save as PDF and allow user to name file.*/
params = F_ApiGetSaveDefaultParams();
i = F_ApiGetPropIndex(&params, FS_FileType);
params.val[i].propVal.u.ival = FV_SaveFmtPdf;
i = F_ApiGetPropIndex(&params, FP_PDFAllNamedDestinations);
params.val[i].propVal.u.ival = (IntT)False;
i = F_ApiGetPropIndex(&params, FP_PDFJobOption);
params.val[i].propVal.u.sval = F_StrCopyString ((StringT)"Smallest File Size");
/* Saves the book and all its components to one PDF file */
int_SaveID = F_ApiSave(bookId, StringT(strTargetFile), &params, &returnParams);
/* Close the open files.*/
F_ApiDeallocatePropVals(&params);
F_ApiDeallocatePropVals(returnParams);
CloseFile(bookId);
Can anyone suggest a way to reduce the size of the pdf file
Thanks,
Neeraja

Are these duplicates side-by-side (e.g. A and then A again) or one after another (A, B, C... and then A, B, C...)?
If they're one set after another, FM picks up the list of paratags to include in the bookmarks list from the first file in the book, so if this doesn' contain everything, it might help to import the additional formats into that one. Then clear/remove the exisiting bookmarks and only add back the Titles and Heading1 bookmarks (check that the TOC ones remain in the Don't include list).

PDF Bookmarks From FrameMaker Books

This question is about bookmarks in a PDF file generated from a Framemaker book where I want different bookmarks for different chapters. I am using FrameMaker 8.02 on Windows.
Here is a simplified view of my chapter files and the paragraph tags for which I want bookmarks:
Table of Contents.fm Title
Chapter 1.fm Title, Heading1, Heading2
Index.fm IndexTitle, GroupTitlesIX
I used the PDF Setup dialog to set the bookmarks for each chapter as shown above.
If I choose File->Save As PDF on the book, FrameMaker presents the PDF Setup dialog which overwrites my preset bookmarks settings in the individual chapters. I can not choose a superset of all the bookmarks because GroupTitlesIX does not appear in either of the lists of paragraph tags to be converted to bookmarks. Despite this, I do get a bookmark for the GroupTitlesIX paragraphs in the index.
If I choose File->Print Selected Files, Acrobat also changes the paragraph tags/bookmarks setting for each selected file.
What would clarify this is an explanation of how FrameMaker chooses which paragraph tags to convert to bookmarks and under what circumstances FrameMaker changes the paragraph tags/bookmarks setting for files of a book.
Or simply how to you use different paragraph tags for bookmarks in different files of a book?
Thanks.

Hey Howard,
We use the Save as PDF all the time and don't have any problems with our bookmarks. We did have to be a little creative in order to get the different headings in the different chapters to show up as bookmarks. All we do is to import the different paragraph styles into the first file in the book (in our case, it is "front.fm"), which usually involves importing the paragraph tags from the TOC, one chapter file, and then Index.
When you are ready to create your PDF file, make sure the first file (with all the required para tags) is selected, then do a Format > Document > PDF Setup and configure your bookmarks. Now do a Save as PDF on the book, still with that particular file selected, and double-check your bookmark settings. All required bookmarks should still be available.
Now they are forever configured and you can successfully do a Save as PDF file every time.

Missing page numbers while generating PDF from Framemaker book

FrameMaker 9 book files have the correct master page applied and page numbers appear right. However, when generating PDF, the page numbers including the footer is missing.
I created another book file, yet same issue occurs.
Also, tried generating separate PDF for each chapter, same issue occurs.
I have installed Univers font from ATM, I'm using WIndows XP. The Footer tags are in Univers font. Could that be the reason?
Please advise.

We have seen a similar problem when the page# was at the right edge of the header or footer frame, and the tab that put it there was too far to the right.
This is an old problem. It comes from setting tab stop positions in paragraph formats with the cursor in the text frame on the TOC reference page. Nothing wrong with this, EXCEPT when the master page text frame has been made narrower than the reference page's text frame. One way to avoid the problem or to fix it, is to set tab stops in a paragraph in the body page text frame, so the width is correct. Another way is to set the tab stops accurately by number, rather than by eye. Visually, the reference page tab stop will look correct, but the generated TOC uses the master page text frame - if it's narrower than the reference frame, this problem occurs.
I seem to remember that this might have been fixed in more recent FM releases, but I think that's a false recovered memory, because this is not a bug, just a discrepancy in measurement. There's no way to expect that the prototype paragraph format on the TOC reference page can know if a tab stop will be out-of-bounds on the generated TOC page.

Page numbers from deleted book file persist in document

I have 4 documents that I needed to merge so I attempted to put them in a book file (which I am not at all familiar with how to use). I removed the documents from the book file because it was not doing what I needed it to do, but the auto section page numbers are persisting in the individual documents and I cannot get rid of them. For example I have page numbering starting on page 5, but pages 1-4 have page numbers 5-8 on them and I cannot get rid of them. (I can do this manually of course but would like to know why they are persisting)

Do you mean the numbers physically appear on the pages and you don't want them there (if so, delete them from the master page(s)) or do you mean the numbering scheme is wrong (if so, check your section and numbering options)?

Some paragraph tags are not printing when document is printed from Framemaker 10.

So this is really odd. I have a situation where I have a document that I am developing in Framemaker 10 several different paragraph tags are intermittently not printing when the document is physically printed. When I go to print the document from Framemaker 10 to a physical piece of paper some tags are printing partially or not at all. What makes this stranger to me is that when I print the document to a PDF, all of the content and tags show up in the PDF. Then when I try to physically print from the PDF, the tags do no print from that document as well.
Typically the tags that are not printing are those that have been bolded, but are across several different tags. Also the problem is sometimes only to the first line of a tag, where if the tag carries over to a second line in the document, the text on the second line prints. Another quirky instance that shows up is where the text a line will print only parts of the text. The document uses the same type font for the entire document, Helvetica 55 Roman. The font size varies and the coloring varies as well, but this issue is happening for all sizes and colors.
I'm not sure what additional information is important here, but if you need additional information please request it and I will supply it to the best of my ability. I'm a content developer with an intermediate amount of experience with Framemaker.

I'm not sure if this is the same problem, and you didn't mention your
OS, but there was a widespread problem with dropped text in PDF with
Windows XP. A hotfix was issued to fix it. If on Windows XP, you should
install it:
http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2008/07/hotfix_for_framemaker_1.html
Also, you mentioned that it was "bolded" text that tended to have the
problem. Bolded text is artificially bold and does not use actual bold
fonts. (If I recall, text is double printed at a slight offset to give
the appearance of a bold font.) So there is no bold font to embed. Be
sure you install and use an actual bold font, rather than using the
bolded characteristic, or you could see problems.
This is a stretch, but you also mentioned that some of the problem
sections have colored text. Check the printer properties of your Adobe
PDF virtual printer to make sure someone didn't reassign the driver (on
the Advanced tab). It should be set to use the Adobe PDF Converter
driver (or Acrobat Distiller in older Acrobat versions). Years ago,
people sometimes changed this setting to use other drivers for various
reasons, not realizing that they limited themselves to the capabilities
of that driver. So, if they chose an HP LaserJet PostScript driver, for
example, their documents might no longer be able to be 11"x17" or
color-- because the printer couldn't handle it. The driver was limited
to 8.5"x14" and black-and-white. Perhaps there is a driver set that is
choking on the colored text-- though I would think it would merely
convert it to B&W.
Okay, I've grasped at enough straws.

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF?

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF? Currently when I have a Framemaker book that I want to save as a PDF, I choose Save Book As and then choose PDF for the file format. A dialog box comes up in which I can choose the Bookmarks tab and choose which tagged content I want to be made into bookmarks in the PDF file. What if I would rather have the filename of a document rather than the chapter title be a bookmark in the PDF? Is that possible? Where would I choose that option? Thanks!

There are two ways that you could do this. You can either use postscript text frames and enter the correct pdfmark entries to show the file name with the corresponding actions (i.e. where to go in the PDF) or you can use hidden text in FM and the "Filename (Short) " variable in a unique paratag to be picked up by FM's bookmark creation.
To go the pdfmark route, see http://www.pdflib.com/fileadmin/pdflib/pdf/pdfmark_primer.pdf for details and also consult the Adobe Pdfmark Reference manual (http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdfmark_reference.pdf).
The hidden text route would use FM's Color Views to specify a colour as Invisible. This will make the content visually disappear from the screen (and any output), but FM will still be able to read the contents of any text that is coloured with the Invisible colour(s).
1. Pick or create a colour that you want to be invisible. [Magenta is usually a good bet and stands out visually].
2. Set that colour to be invisible in View 1 and visible in View 6. [you can use the shortcut <esc> v 1 and <esc> v 6 to toggle between the views.]
3. Create a paratag to use for the filename and set the font colour to use the invisible colour.
3. In the title of each chapter file, drop an anchored frame that is set to be outside of the text frame [so it won't interfere with any other content].
4. In that AFrame, insert a text frame and use the invisible paratag defined in step 3.
5. Insert the Filename (Short) variable in that text frame.
6. Repeat steps for all files to be included in the bookmarks.
When creating the PDF bookmarks, select only the paratag used for the invisible colour.
Don't forget to toggle the View to be invisible (i.e. <esc> v 1 - this also works at the book level for all files in the book).

FAQ: Creating PDF Files from FrameMaker v.6 & earlier Documents -- Why you should not use "save as PDF"! -- Windows & MacOS Only!

An issue that has come up over and over again on several FrameMaker and Acrobat/PDF email lists as well on the corresponding Adobe User-to-User forums is that of creation of PDF files. FrameMaker 5.5.6 and 6 have what looks like a convenient feature that is supposed to allow you to create PDF files via simply saving the document as a PDF file. I have gone on record as advising end-users not to use this approach for reliable creation of PDF files from FrameMaker documents under Windows and MacOS with FrameMaker 6 and earlier. Why do I most vociferously offer this advice and why doesn't the problem get fixed? And how SHOULD you create PDF files from FrameMaker?
GOOD NEWS
I will start with the good news. The "next major version" of FrameMaker will indeed have "save as PDF" re-implemented in a manner that it will be as reliable as printing to the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance under Windows or the "Create Adobe PDF" desktop printer under MacOS. I am personally working with the FrameMaker development organization to make sure this really happens and is fully and properly tested and debugged! Furthermore, this next major revision of FrameMaker, unlike FrameMaker 6, will come with a Distiller installer that will properly install the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance under Windows and the "Create Adobe PDF" desktop printer on the Macintosh (of course assuring that the latest PostScript driver is also automatically and correctly installed).
DON'T USE "SAVE AS PDF"
But what's wrong with "save as PDF" as currently implemented?
The following are some of the SYMPTOMS reported over the last few years by FrameMaker users that were traced back to use of "save as PDF" under FrameMaker:
(1) No PDF file is produced at all, possibly with a log file showing not-readily apparent PostScript errors during distillation.
(2) The PDF file "loses" color in images. All or some images (raster, bitmap images, NOT vector artwork) appear in the PDF file in grayscale.
(3) The resultant PDF file is on the wrong paper size, i.e., the document's logical page size does not match the output page size as seen in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader.
(4) Some or all text in the resultant PDF file is blotchy looking or overly bold.
(5) Some or all text in the resultant PDF file cannot be searched or indexed.
(6) Some or all text in the resultant PDF file appears in Courier or in some other substitution font.
(7) Interword or intercharacter spacing is a bit irregular in the resultant PDF file.
(8) Content is missing in the margin areas of the page, i.e. you cannot do full-page bleeds.
(9) Some or all page content is missing (other than margin areas).
(10) Relatively inefficient PDF is generated.
If this list by itself isn't enough for you, please note that some of these symptoms are very subtle and may escape attention when the PDF is first viewed or printed. Oftimes, it is when one attempts to manipulate the PDF file in Acrobat or repurpose its content or even view or print on a system other than the one on which the PDF file was created, that some of these symptoms make themselves obnoxiously visible (or invisible in some cases I won't make any bad jokes here about graphic examples!).
It is important to understand that FrameMaker does NOT have its own native ability to create PDF. Any and all PDF created from FrameMaker documents is actually done by creating PostScript via the PostScript driver and having the Acrobat Distiller create PDF from that PostScript. The only exception to this is creation of PDF via the Acrobat PDFWriter driver, which is likewise not recommended (see below).
In order for "save as PDF" to work correctly, FrameMaker must do the equivalent of calling Printer Setup and selecting the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance under Windows or the "Create Adobe PDF" desktop printer under MacOS followed by setting the driver's options correctly for paper size, page range, etc., followed by sending the proper commands to the driver to create PostScript.
Contrary to popular belief, PostScript as generated by the Windows and MacOS PostScript drivers is VERY device-dependent. The information in the PPD file associated with a printer driver instance provides critical parameters for generation of PostScript including:
Whether the printer supports color (Acrobat Distiller does)
What PostScript language level is supported (Acrobat Distiller 4.x and Acrobat Distiller 5.x are both PostScript language level 3)
Whether native TrueType support is available (Acrobat supports native TrueType as Type 42 fonts)
Available binary communications (Acrobat Distiller supports pure binary and ASCII, but NOT TCP, TBCP, or PJL)
Resident fonts (Acrobat Distiller doesn't really have resident fonts)
Available paper sizes and custom paper size availability (Acrobat Distiller supports a wide range of predefined sizes and continually variable "custom" sizes up to 200" by 200")
Margins / printable areas (for PDF and the Acrobat Distiller, there are no margins in which imaging is not permitted)
Device resolution (Acrobat Distiller can be set to any value from 72 to 4000 dpi; as a convenience, the Acrobat Distiller PPD provides a series of values for use by the driver. Since there is no inherent "resolution" of a PDF file, this parameter is used only for purposes of allowing PostScript programs that query for such a value to be satisfied and for the driver to be able to communicate this value to the operating system and/or application as required.)
Paper handling (totally irrelevant to Acrobat Distiller if input or output tray selection via "setpagedevice" is found in the PostScript stream, it is ignored by Acrobat Distiller)
Thus, if the wrong printer driver instance is selected (i.e., it isn't associated with the Acrobat Distiller PPD file) or that driver instance is improperly configured, improper PostScript will result and one or more of the symptoms described above can occur. As currently implemented, FrameMaker depending upon version will not necessarily choose the correct printer driver instance and/or correctly parameterize the print job via driver setup options. In fact, FrameMaker 5,5,6 might even try to generate PDF via calling a PCL driver, FAX driver, or even a non-PostScript inkjet printer!
DON'T USE PDFWRITER
The Acrobat PDFWriter is a relic of older versions of Acrobat. In fact, it is no longer installed by default in the "easy install" or the "typical install" of Acrobat 5. It hasn't really be updated since Acrobat 3 and only supports PDF 1.2. It is a GDI (Windows) / QuickDraw (MacOS) driver that directly generates PDF without any intermediary PostScript. Since it is not a PostScript printer driver, applications cannot pass through EPS graphics and/or PDFMark information (used for a wide variety of purposes by FrameMaker). For EPS graphics, most applications will send the low resolution TIFF (or PICT) EPS header in lieu of the PostScript text, if they send anything at all, to the driver. Forget about links, structure, or any other PDF "goodies." Expect that PDFWriter will fully "bite the dust" in the next major version of Acrobat.
SO HOW DO I GENERATE PDF FILES FROM FRAMEMAKER 6 & EARLIER?
The ONLY method that is really reliable for producing PDF files with FrameMaker 6 and earlier requires the generation of PostScript via a properly set printer driver instance associated with the Acrobat Distiller PPD and distillation of the resultant PostScript by Acrobat Distiller.
Case 1: FrameMaker and the Full Acrobat 4.05 or Acrobat 5.0x Products
PDF file from a "chapter" -- print directly to the Acrobat Distiller printer instance (Windows) or the Create Adobe PDF desktop printer (MacOS) already installed by Acrobat. If you check the "Acrobat data" option, then make sure to UNcheck the "print to file" option that gets set at the same time. As a result, the driver will automatically send the generated PostScript to the Distiller for you and delete the intermediate PostScript when done.
PDF file from a "book" -- print directly to the Acrobat Distiller printer instance with the "print to file" option checked (Windows) or the Virtual Printer desktop printer (MacOS) associated with the Distiller PPD (see details below under Case 2/MacOS). You will need to manually process the resultant PostScript file through the Distiller (or use a "watched folder" arrangement).
In both the above sub-cases, the default driver options generally will be OK, but check on paper size and communication protocol (Use pure binary, not ASCII, for optimal performance AND no CTRL-D characters under Windows. Make sure to set Level 3 only and Binary under MacOS. Font inclusion "All" for Acrobat 4.05 and "None" for Acrobat 5 under MacOS.). With Acrobat 4.05, make sure you preset the Distiller to use the joboptions you want. With Acrobat 5, you can set this on a job-by-job basis via the driver printer setup interface (or print dialog on MacOS).
Case 2: FrameMaker 6 and the Bundled Acrobat 4.05 Distiller
Windows -- Create a new printer driver instance using the latest version of the Adobe Universal PostScript Driver Installer, downloadable from Adobe's web site AND the Acrobat Distiller PPD file (located in the XTRAS subdirectory of the Distiller directory). This driver instance should be set to print to the local port named "FILE:". Name this driver instance as "Acrobat Distiller". The default driver options generally will be OK, but check on paper size and communication protocol (use pure binary, not ASCII, for optimal performance AND no CTRL-D characters). Make sure you preset the Distiller to use the joboptions you want. Print directly to this Acrobat Distiller printer instance. Make sure that the "print to file" option is checked. You will need to manually process the resultant PostScript file through the Distiller (or use a "watched folder" arrangement).
MacOS -- Install the latest version of AdobePS 8.7.x, downloadable from Adobe's web site. In FrameMaker, go to Page Setup and select the "Virtual Printer" and go to the "Virtual Printer" window pane. Select the Acrobat Distiller PPD file (located in the XTRAS subfolder of the Distiller folder). Print directly to the "Virtual Printer" (Make sure to set Level 3 only, Binary, and font inclusion "All".). Make sure you preset the Distiller to use the joboptions you want. You will need to manually process the resultant PostScript file through the Distiller (or use a "watched folder" arrangement).
Case 3: Acrobat 3
Acrobat 3 is not officially supported for the latest OS versions and I personally would no longer recommend its use for generation of PDF files given that Acrobat 5.0.5 is the current version of Acrobat.

You're asking a lot of ancient Acrobat to work with an Office that never existed when it was made. "Just updated my office suite" is a massive change, and Window 8 didn't exist at that time either...

Error when linking FrameMaker book or document to RoboHelp project (TCS2)

Hi,
I'm trying to link a FrameMaker (9.0p250) book to a RoboHelp (8.0.2.208) project, but get the following error:
"Failed to get any FrameMaker document from C:\.....\myfile.book" / OK
When I select the book file to link and choose [Open] I get an hourglass for a couple minutes then the error above. No wizard or "Scanning..." progress window.
I've tried linking a book from a network drive, from my hard drive, with the book open in FM9 and not open in FM9 (but FM9 itself is open).
Also tried linking an FM9 document and this time got the "Scanning..." progress window then the message:
""myfile.fm" could not be opened. Please verify that FrameMaker is installed and this is a valid FrameMaker document."
This is my first time trying this since installing TCS2, however I was able to link a book file when working with the trial version.
Any idea what may be the problem?
Thanks in advance.
Heather

I think this was due to a PC or network issue. After redocking my laptop today I can now link without error.

How can I create one pdf from a FrameMaker Book with mixed page sizes.

Looking for an easier way to create one pdf from a FrameMaker book that has files with different pages sizes; letter and tabloid.
So far, I have not been able to find a way to set up the Adobe PDF printer or Distiller to read the page size from the source files in the book and then create one pdf with the appropriate page sizes based on the file sizes in the FrameMaker book. I can create a pdf of the book using a multi-step process where I create a pdf for each page size and then combine them into one file. This is a lot of work.
Is there a way to set the Adobe PDF printer where it reads page size from the source files and then creates one pdf with a mixed page sizes?
Using FrameMaker 7 and 10 and Acrobat X Pro.

Best methods for creating e-books from FrameMaker 10 (TCS 3.5)

I would like to know your thoughts on which of the following methods is the best, and easiest, way to create e-books from FrameMaker. I will most likely be using Calibre to do the file conversion.
(1) Using File > Publish > ePub to create an ePub file, which can then be imported into Calibre.
(2) Using the File > Save Book As > HTM command (which creates a separate HTML file for each FM file), editing the HTML files in RoboHelp (or another HTML editing tool), then importing all of the HTML files into Calibre.
Note that when I published to HTML from FM, it appears that only an output file was created from RoboHelp, as I could not find any HTML files were actually created. Is that the case, or was I just not looking for the HTML files in the right place?
If anyone has any other recommendations, please let me know! Thanks!

I linked the FrameMaker book to RoboHelp, then generated an ePub file from RoboHelp, and have a couple of issues.
(1) When I open the ePub file in Calibre and Adobe Digital Editions, there is no contents section within the book. The only contents is the contents in the navigation bar. How do I generate a contents to appear in the front of the ebook, or do I have to create that manually in RH? I did specify the settings in RH to convert the FM contents.
(2) The ePub file looks much better in Calibre than Adobe Digital Editions. Should I be concerned about this? Which viewer should I rely on?

As for the "Session could not be started for iPod" problem, just (Mac OS X only):
1. Quit iTunes.
2. Open Terminal.
3. Copy and paste into terminal:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes DeviceBackupsDisabled -bool true
Hit Return.
4. Open iTunes.
5. Make sure iOS device is plugged in and let it sync. That command that you needed to copy and paste into Terminal will disable the backup process when your iPod is plugged in and syncing.
6. Quit iTunes after iPod is finished syncing.
7. Return to Terminal and copy and paste the same command, but change "true" to "false". Hit Return.
8. Open iTunes.
9. Backup should go smoothly.

Export different layers from two documents in one book

hey guys!
i've been browsing the web al lot recently to find a solution for my problem, but unfortunately, didn't find any help.
There are two documents in an book. both of them contain the same layers, but different content.
(doc1-layer1-layer2 / doc2-layer1-layer2)
Is it possible to export/print the book, and use layer1 form document one and layer2 from document 2?
Maybe there is a plugin / script for this topic?
Thanks for your help in advance, i'm glad for every hint!

Just upgraded from FrameMaker 7.2 to version 12. When I try to create a pdf of a book using .ps file, this crashes. When I use the SaveAsPDF option, the graphics either missing or only partially shown in the resulting PDF. Any ideas?

I just upgraded from FrameMaker 7.2 to version 12. When I create the .pdf of a book using the SaveAsPDF option, the many of the graphics are either missing or partially missing. Any ideas why?

1. Check to see whether you're fully patched (the latest release is 12.0.4 - you need to install the patches in order).
2. Use the RGB option instead of the CMYK (unless you are creating output for press production).
