For any Framemaker 7.2 users out there who does not already know, Framemaker 7.2 will not work with Windows XP SP3.

A security file in Win XP SP3 causes problems with OLE graphics imported into FM. The problem will only rear its head when you try to save the document and the following error box appears:

"An Internal error occurred while writing imported graphics in this document. The file has been saved, but has lost some image data. Please report this fault to Adobe Technical Support."

Why only OLE imports are affect is beyond my skills as I would expect this problem with referenced imports. Adobe are not aware of this concern and have no fix. There are a couple of fixes, but neither are ideal.

1. Remove all OLE files and import them as referenced files, then save.
2. Roll back Windows XP to SP2. (This is what I had to do as I have a vast quantity of documents with OLE files.)

If anybody has further info please feel free to discuss.
