Text inset statements
The TiText and TiTextTable statements respectively include two new statements, TiTxtEncoding and
TiTxtTblEncoding, to specify the text encoding for the source file. Both of these new statements can have one of
the following keywords:
TiIsoLatin, TiASCII, TiANSI, TiMacASCII, TiJIS, TiShiftJIS, TiEUC, TiBig5,
TIEUCCNS, TiGB, TiHZ, or TiKorean.
Marker statements
In FrameMaker 5.5, users can now define named custom markers. MTypeName is a new statement to specify the
marker name. The
MType statement is still written out for backward compatibility, but FrameMaker 5.5 reads
MTypeName when present.
Graphic object statements
If the Overprint statement is not present in a graphic object, the overprint setting for the object’s color is assumed.
ObTint applies a tint to whatever color is assigned to the object. If the object’s color already has a tint, the two tint
values are added together.
Structured element definition statements
EDAttrHidden is a new statement in the EDAttrDef that specifies whether an attribute is hidden or not.
FStretch and FStretchChange are new statements added to the FmtChangeList to specify how much to stretch
or compress the characters in an element.
