Any section of data represented in hexadecimal is preceded and followed by the characters \x. For example, the
following FrameImage facet contains data represented in hexadecimal, which is enclosed between two sets of
\x
characters:
=FrameImage
&%v

&59a66a95
&00000040

Integer data
The integer data type stores integer values in a facet. For example, the fmbitmap program stores the dimensions of
the graphic, the x-coordinate of the hot spot, and the y-coordinate of the hot spot as integer data in a facet:
=Data.facet
&%i
&64
&64
&-1

Metric data
Metric data describes a graphic in terms of units of measurement. The following table shows the abbreviations used
to denote units within a facet.
Graphic insets (UNIX versions)
A graphic inset contains graphic data that can be written by a graphic application and used by FrameMaker to display
and print an imported graphic. A graphic inset can also specify a live link, which associates an imported graphic in
a FrameMaker document with the graphic application used to edit the graphic. A live link can be set up through
FrameServer functions or through an FDK client.
When a live link is established between an imported graphic and a graphic application, users can edit the graphic in
a graphic application and directly import the graphic into a FrameMaker document. For more information on live
links, see the FDK Programmer’s Guide, which is provided with the FDK, or the online manual, Using FrameServer
with Applications and Insets, which is provided with the UNIX version of the FDK.
