XSLTProcessors
Use these settings to specify the path of XSLT processors. Ensure that all dependent jars of a processor
are in the same directory. If you do not specify a processor as default, the processor mentioned first
becomes the default XSLT processor.
XALAN
Specifies the path of the XALAN processor on the computer. FrameMaker uses this path to locate
the XALAN processor for XSLT processing. Suffix the path with, Default to make the XALAN
pro
cessor the default processor.
SAXON
Specifies the path of the SAXON processor on the computer. FrameMaker uses this path to locate
the
SAXON processor for XSLT processing. Suffix the path with, Default to make the SAXON
pro
cessor the default processor.
APIClients
The [APIClients] section lists FDK clients (plug-ins) to start when FrameMaker starts. Each client descrip-
tion must be on a separate line.
Descriptions for clients that are not filters use the following format:
clientName=ClientType, description, path, mode
62
APICLIENTS
CHAPTER 2 MAKER.INI
For example, the Mailer client setting looks like:
Mailer=Standard, Send Mail API Client, fminit\mailer.dll,all
Clients that are filters use the following format:
clientName=ClientType, [facet, format_ID, vendor_id, display_name, ]
description, path, mode, extension
For example, the RTF filter client setting looks like:

DASHPATTERNS
CHAPTER 2 MAKER.INI
RTF=TextImport, RTF, RTF, FAPI, RTF, Rich Text Format (RTF) Import,
filters\rtfimprt.dll, all, ^.rtf
To create a client, you need the Frame Developer’s Kit (FDK) for Windows®. If you are installing an FDK
client, follow instructions provided with the client to add its startup information to the initialization file.
You can also load API clients simply by placing them in the Plugins folder and then starting FrameMaker.
DashPatterns
The [DashPatterns] settings define the eight dash pattern choices that appear in the Dashed Line Options
dialog box. You can edit these settings to replace the standard choices with custom ones:
1=Dash, 8, 6
2=Hidden, 4
3=Longdash, 16, 10
4=Dot, 2, 4
5=Dash-Dot, 12, 6, 2, 6
6=Dash-Dot-Dot, 12, 6, 2, 6, 2, 6
7=Chain, 12, 6, 6, 6
8=Phantom, 20, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6
Each dash pattern contains a label that identifies the dash pattern in the Dashed Line Options dialog box
and a repeating series of dash and gap segment lengths. Dashes and gaps are measured in points. The
following illustration shows a dashed line and its segment description. The line is made up of a 12-point
dash, a 6-point gap, a 6-point dash, and another 6-point gap. This pattern repeats to draw a dashed line
of any length.
If a dash pattern setting contains an odd number of segment lengths, the last dash value is repeated for
the
final gap. For example, the following setting describes a dash pattern with 4-point dashes and 4-point
gaps:
2=Hidden, 4
The dash pattern label cannot contain spaces or punctuation marks.
Thermometers
A thermometer is a horizontal bar that shows progress during operations that can take some time. One
color, on the left of the bar, represents the percentage of the operation that is complete. Another color,
on the right of the bar, represents the percentage remaining. The thermometer updates as the operation
progresses. The [Thermometer] settings specify colors to use in thermometers as red, green, and blue
(RGB) values. You can change these values to specify different colors.
ThermoDoneColor=255, 0, 255
ThermoRemainingColor=192, 192, 192
64
DOCCOMPARE

ConditionInserted: The standard Inserted condition
ConditionTag: A custom condition
Nothing
Edit the file so the option you want is the only one without a semicolon before it. If you choose a
custom condition for inserted text, specify its tag with the InsertConditionTag setting.
MarkDeletedText
This flag controls the standard choice for marking deletions. You can choose:
ConditionDeleted: The standard Inserted condition
ConditionTag: A custom condition, ;
ReplacementText: Replacement text
Edit the file so the option you want is the only one without a semicolon before it.
Related flags:

string in the DeleteReplacementText setting (in place of the ^).
AddChangeBars
Set this flag to On to add change bars to the composite document.
InsertHyperTextLinks
Set this flag to On to add hypertext links to the summary document.
CompareAttributesForElements
Set this flag to On to compare elements’ attribute values also during doc comparison.
65
SPELLING
CHAPTER 2 MAKER.INI
ThresholdFactor
This flag controls when to mark an entire paragraph or table cell as changed. The preset value is 75;
an entire paragraph is marked as changed if 75 percent or more of the words are changed. You can
increase or decrease this percentage.
Spelling
The flags in the Spelling section in the initialization file define the options for spell-checking and specify
which style of quotation marks to use.
You can change any On setting to Off (and vice versa) and specify different characters in the last four
li
nes. These values are updated every time you exit, using the current settings in the Spelling Checker
Options dialog box.
NOTE: If you edit FindTwoInARow, IgnoreWordsContaining, FindSpaceBefore, and FindSpaceAfter, be sure
to leave a space between the On/Off toggle and the character or group of characters to the right of it.
AdobeLinguisticsPath
The directory path to the FrameMaker linguistics folder.
UserDictModifiedTime
Last modified time of user dictionary.
SiteDictModifiedTime
Last modified time of site dictionary.
BannerText
Banner text appears in elements in Structured FrameMaker and instructs you on what content should go
into an element. The flags in the BannerText section allow you to format and control the BannerText.
BannerTextTextColor
Specify the color of the banner text for the structured documents. Default value is Black.
BannerTextFontAngle
Specify an angle of the banner text (Regular, Italic or As Is)for the structured documents.
BannerTextFontVariation
Specify a variation of the font width: UltraCompressed, ExtraCompressed, Compressed, Condensed,
Narrow, Regular, Wide, Poster, or Expanded.
BannerTextBKColor
The background color of banner text that distinguishes it from the text in the document. To change,
s
pecify any color present in the document. To see available color names, click View > Color > Defi-
nitions in FrameMaker.

FONTANGLEALIASES
CHAPTER 2 MAKER.INI
RedisplayBannerTextForEmptyElements
Off: Banner text in a file does not reappear if you delete it once or save the file and reopen it.
On: Banner text reappears after you delete it or save and reopen the file.
FontAngleAliases
Windows fonts use different font angles even when font names are the same as on other platforms. The
settings under [FontAngleAliases] assign angles used on other platforms to Windows angles and weights.
Defaults:
[FontAngleAliases]Obliqued=Oblique
FontWeightAliases
Windows fonts use different font weights, even when font names are the same as on other platforms.
The settings under [FontWeightAliases] assign weights used on other platforms to Windows weights.
Defaults:
[FontWeightAliases]Medium=RegularRoman=RegularSemi=SemiBoldDemi=DemiBoldB
olded=Bold
WindowsToFrameFontAliases
Each setting under [WindowsToFrameFontAliases] assigns a Windows font to a FrameMaker font name.
Thus, font information appears in the Windows interface as it does in other versions of FrameMaker. For
example, Helvetica Narrow is normally a font family in Windows, but with aliasing Helvetica appears as
a font family and Narrow appears as a variation in the Character Designer and Paragraph Designer.
Font aliasing also makes it possible to go back and forth easily between Windows and other platforms.
Fr
ameMaker automatically converts Windows fonts to their FrameMaker equivalents for you.
The settings under [WindowsToFrameFontAliases] use this syntax:
Windows-font [angle|*], [weight|*]=Frame-font [angle|*], [weight|*],
[variation|*]
Windows-font is a font family available in Windows. The angle for this font can be either Regular or Italic,
and the weight can be one of the weights defined in the font profile under [Fonts]. You can also use an
as
terisk (*) to specify no particular angle or weight.
Frame-font is a font family available on the other platforms. The angle, weight, and variation for this
fam
ily can be any of the ones defined in the font profile. If you use an asterisk (*), the FrameMaker font
will use the angle, weight, or variation from the Windows font.
67
UNKNOWNTOKNOWNFONTMAP
CHAPTER 2 MAKER.INI
For example, this setting assigns the Windows font family Helvetica Narrow to the FrameMaker font
name Helvetica with the Narrow variation:
HelveticaNarrow, * , *=Helvetica, * , * , Narrow
The two asterisks specify that angles and weights are not affected in this alias.
If you do not have an appropriate alias defined for a Windows font, the default alias is used:
Windows-font *, *=Frame-font *, *, *
You can add more aliases to [WindowsToFrameFontAliases] and change existing ones. Follow the syntax
for any changes you make.
UnknownToKnownFontMap
When you open a document that requires fonts not available on your system, an alert box appears telling
you the document uses unavailable fonts. If you click OK, FrameMaker opens the document and substi-
tutes the unavailable fonts with the fonts specified under [UnknownToKnownFontMap] in the initializa-
tion file. Initially, this section has a few lines of comments and some mappings for common Macintosh®
fo
nts. You can change these mappings and add others.
The mappings under [UnknownToKnownFontMap] must use this syntax:
unavailable_Frame_font [angle|*], [weight|*],
[variation|*]=available_Frame_font [angle|*], [weight|*],[variation|*]
The angles, weights, and variations for these mappings can be any of the ones defined in the font profile
under [Fonts]. You can also use an asterisk (*) to specify no particular angle, weight, or variation.
For example,
Lumina, *, *=Helvetica, *, *, *
Helvetica, *, Light, *=Helvetica, *, Regular, *
Helvetica, *, *, UltraCompressed=Helvetica, *, *, Narrow
If you open a document with unavailable fonts and don’t have substitutes mapped for those fonts,
FrameMaker replaces them with the default fonts defined under [Fonts] instead. Note that the settings
under [UnknownToKnownFontMap] map one FrameMaker font to another. This is different from
[WindowsToFrameFontAliases], which assigns a FrameMaker font name to an equivalent Windows font.
Filters
This section in the ini file contains settings for identifying foreign file formats, export filters, and import
filters. FrameMaker provides these settings when you install filters. If you want to change any of the
settings, install the filters again. Do not edit the settings manually in an initialization file.
68
AEMRECENTFAVSETTINGS
CHAPTER 2 MAKER.INI
AEMRecentFavSettings
