The FOM release notes say this:

  • Added fJSPrinter raw mode properties.
  • Added fZip object.
  • Added fApplication.zipOpen() method.
  • Added fTemplatePreferencesOutput object.
  • Added fTemplatePreferences.output property.
  • Added fIndexAdvancedItem.entryPageAttribute, entryPageBookmark properties.
  • Added fBookmark.TYPE_PDF_3DVIEW constant.
  • Added fdStreamPos.runningHeaders property.
  • Added fdRunningHeaderGroup, fdRunningHeader, and fdRunningHeaderItem objects.

New features in this release:

  • Colour Management – using a Document Preference, you can set working profiles to use when defining colours in your template. When you create output using different profiles, APP will translate the colour values to their new output profiles.
  • ZIP file access – it is now possible to access a zip file during both file loading and saving. FOM has a new fZip object which provides a means to open or create the zip file, which can then be treated as a special APP area type for all file-based activities.
  • Display objects now provide information about running headers which appear on the current page.
  • PDF bookmarks can now link to different views in U3D objects to enable users to click on text links to change the 3D graphic.
  • You’ll also notice we have extended the JavaScript printer driver and provided FOM support for the XML printer driver.
  • Another little feature, but which is pretty useful, is the ability to specify that generated index page numbers can appear as an attribute value rather than as text content.
