Adobe FrameMaker 12 Release Notes

Check the System Requirements before installing FrameMaker.

Installation instructions

For detailed instructions on installation, see the Install FrameMaker section in the User Guide.

Trial software

FrameMaker 12 trials are "try and buy", allowing you to evaluate individual products or editions and then convert the installed trial to a full version. You can convert from a trial to a full version at any time by either purchasing a copy of the product or signing up for a subscription. If you purchase a copy, enter its serial number in the product screen where prompted.

Installing fonts

Install fonts into a default system font directory. If the installer finds older versions of these fonts in the default system font directory, it will uninstall the older versions, and save them to a new directory. The default system font directory is:

Windows: ..\Windows\Fonts

The older fonts will be saved in the new directory:

Windows: ..\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\SavedFonts\current

This new directory will also contain a file named "Read Me.html" which lists the saved fonts, and the version numbers of the new and of the old font files.

You can re-install the older fonts by deleting the new font files from the default system font directory , and moving the old files back into that directory.
