Mahesh Gupta, Adobe’s FrameMaker Product Manager announced the availability of the Version 8.0.2 update in a post on the Technical Communication blog.

This patch (8.0p273) must be applied on top of 8.0.1 (8.0p266) only.

The update covers a series of minor bugs and annoyances, including several related to Unicode characters and XML roundtripping and the status bar shortcuts (Ctrl+F8, Ctrl+F9) for the paragraph and character catalogs (see the post for the full list).

The update is available via the Adobe Update Manager (Help > Updates), and should show up on the FrameMaker Downloads page sometime soon.
