Note: With version 8, you can open documents created with earlier versions of FrameMaker. However, you can open
a FrameMaker 8 document in earlier versions only indirectly. First you must open the document in version 8 and save
it as a FrameMaker 7.0 or Maker Interchange Format (MIF) 7.0 document. You can then open the FM or MIF file in
the earlier version. New features in version 8 are ignored, and messages in a UNIX window will report MIF statements
for these features as being “skipped.”
Using templates
FrameMaker 8 stores templates in this directory: $FMHOME/fminit/UILanguage/Templates. You can use
templates from version 7.2 or earlier by copying them from your old templates directory into the current directory.
To convert the templates to the current format, open and save them with FrameMaker 8.
Using fonts
FrameMaker provides font files for several Type 1 fonts. For information on adding fonts, see Working with Fonts
in FrameMaker for UNIX, available in this path: $FMHOME/fminit/<UILan-
guage>/Documents/Unix_Fonts.pdf.
