Hi to all:
If you find yourself considering DITA and FrameMaker and you have a FrameMaker
legacy template you want to use, there are often
questions about migrating to the DITA world. To that end, I'm going to deliver
a webinar for Adobe late in October. I want to extend
an invitation to everyone on the Framer's and the FrameMaker-DITA lists to join
us.
The workshop details, including a link, are below. It is geared towards people
who have a basic idea of what an EDD is and does, but
you don't need to be overly technical to "get it". If you want to figure out
how to customize DITA and FrameMaker to work with your
template, this is a good starting point for you. I have a lot of clients who
run into this situation, and there are many little
things that can be done to get started.
So, please feel free to join me in this Adobe supported presentation. If you
belong to other groups that can benefit from this,
please feel free to forward this information as well.
