Languages and Structures / Converting Structured files

Subtitles of the Movie

For this lesson you can open ReportNumeric.fm - we are in the structured view, and this is in your programs folder. And we are going to go to file utilities, and we are going to choose, create, convert structured document. Converting a structured document allows you to convert from a structured document to a Framemaker file, which is very useful. We have to specify where the file is and where the file is going, and the suffix of the file, as well as the application type. Now let’s take a look at structured tools, and generate CSS. We can generate cascading style sheet code from your particular Framemaker document. You can open up a cascading style sheet file with notepad. Now we are going to go vice versa - we could create a new EDD, export an element catalog as EDD, edit applications definitions. We can edit the definitions of this particular document. Let's look a little further, let’s go to utilities again, and we can convert document to structured format. Now this is the vice versa, we can actually convert a Framemaker document from a specific location and output it to a specific location. We are going from Framemaker to an SGML file. And then I would click convert and we would convert the document. A lot of times, you may want to check with the SGML or XML developer at your workplace before doing this - and there you go. this - and there you go.
