Hi Eduardo, No plugin or procedure needed, but you need to set up any version of structured FrameMaker to understand and interpret your (XML?) info coming from ArborText or any other XML editor. (unless you want to edit in a standard text editor like Notepad...)
In FrameMaker, you will want to create a structured application to point to the DTD and other files needed to process the XML and format as desired, since your DTD will not address formatting. As with AT, setting up these details is not a simple 5-minute process; since you probably won't be doing this with regularity, you may want to leverage company resources who understand the process, or engage someone familiar with it to speed up development time. -Matt Matt Sullivan GRAFIX Training matt at grafixtraining.com www.grafixtraining.com office 714 960-6840 cell & txt 714 585-2335 sms message skype: mattrsullivan twitter: mattrsullivan linkedin facebook -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of ecidade at zoominternet.net Sent: Wednesday, January 06, 2010 2:09 PM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Epic Arbortext to Adobe FrameMaker Importance: High Good afternoon Fellow Framers First, my setup: WXP Pro 2002 SP2, FrameMaker 8 and 9 (I have both)... My aircraft manufacturer composes material/documentation in Epic Arbortext. I compose my material/documentation in Adobe FrameMaker. Is there a plug in or procedure for converting Epic Arbortext documentation to Adobe Framemaker. The manufacturer provided me with a DTD and I've tried creating an EDD, then opening the .SGM file using the newly formed EDD, but to no avail. ...just looking for a solution somewhere out here. All the best to all of you. Eduardo _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as matt at grafixtraining.com.
