Getting Started with Structure
•
Map FrameMaker 7.0 elements (such as paragraph tags, character tags, and graphics)
to online styles.
•
Convert text, graphics, and tables to HTML, Dynamic HTML—HTML with cascading
style sheets (CSS)—and XML.
•
Determine how a FrameMaker 7.0 document is divided into one or more HTML files.
•
Convert any images to online formats.
•
Specify how navigation bars appear at the top and bottom of a page.
•
Create an HTML FrameSet.
You can install WebWorks Publisher Standard from the CD in your FrameMaker 7.0
product package. For more information on setting up and using WebWorks Publisher
Standard, see the
WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition
User Guide
.
Well-formed XML
Start tags must be matched with end tags, attribute values must have start and end quotes,
and elements must be properly nested inside each other to create well-formed XML.
Structured FrameMaker 7.0 automates this process for you, so if the phone rings and you
forget to enter an end quote, FrameMaker doesn’t forget.
Structured FrameMaker 7.0 lets you create documents in a familiar word-processing
mode but with the ability to be automatically hyperlinked for PDF, HTML, XML, and
other electronic formats. Structure provides navigation ability. You can publish to
multiple channels using a variety of formats. You can create a single document and
publish it to a variety of formats. The program gives you tools for XML authoring and
publishing Web pages and PDFs. Content management systems that handle industry
databases such as product catalogs, annual reports, and stock market reports can reuse
the content repeatedly.
XML enables communications
XML also allows one computer talk to another. As computer capabilities continue to
evolve, more applications may be able to read an XML file. Currently, word processors
cannot, and desktop publishing programs cannot. With tags, programs are able to talk to
each other. Microsoft Excel with tags is easy to move to another form.
