Hi,

FrameMaker 8 does not support bidirectional languages. You will find more information in the archive of the FrameUsers mailing list:
<http://www.mail-archive.com/search?q=arabic&l=framers%40lists.frameusers.com>

Trados does support FrameMaker 8 MIF files. However, I encountered some bugs when I got the translated files back from the translation agency: variables and numbering were changed, spaces in text in tables were deleted, text in table rows was not translated. Meanwhile some of these should be fixed.

Best regards

Winfried

Thanks Winfried, yes I have found the fixes I need to work with FM8 mifs and I'll keep in mind what you have mentioned above.

Thomas no to BiDi but obviously there have been updates/fixes to the above
