Adobe FRAMEMAKER 10 - Track Edited Text; Conditional Text

ADOBE FRAMEMAKER 10
MIF Reference
57
In general, you would use an include statement to read a header file containing define statements that a filter
needs to translate a file. Isolate the data in a header file to simplify the process of changing important mappings. You
can also use an
include statement to read in a template file containing formatting information. Your application can
then simply generate a document’s text. For more information, see “Including template files” on page 44.
Track edited text
Reviewers can edit FrameMaker documents sent for review with the Track Text Edit feature enabled. In a MIF file,
you can enable the Track Text Edit feature using the
DTrackChangesOn statement. FrameMaker retains the
Windows/Unix login name of the reviewer and a timestamp indicating the time of the edit in each of the edits. Before
you accept all text edits, you can preview the final document with all the text editsor the text edits by a specific
reviewer incorporated in the document. Alternatively, you can preview the original document without the text edits
incorporated in the document. To preview how a document will appear if you accept all text edits or reject all text
edits , use the
DTrackChangesPreviewState statement.
Syntax
Conditional text
FrameMaker documents can contain conditional text. In a MIF file, the condition tags are defined by a Condition
statement, which specifies whether the condition tag is hidden or shown. The condition tags for a document are
stored in a
ConditionCatalog statement.
Within the text flow,
Conditional and Unconditional statements show where conditional text begins and ends.
