As of FrameMaker 8, there are 12 standard marker types: -Author
-Comment -Conditional Text -Cross-ref -Equation -Glossary -Header/Footer $1 -Header/Footer $2 -HTML Macro -Hypertext -Index -Subject But at the bottom of the list is a choice called "Edit...", which allows you to define any other types you want to use for any other purpose. There is nothing "magic" about user-defined marker; the type is just an arbitrary attribute that you can use for finding/filtering/listing the markers. -Fred Ridder > From: Alison.Craig at ultrasonix.com > To: framers at lists.frameusers.com > Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2010 10:54:57 -0700 > Subject: FM 9 and the Pending Marker > > I was noodling around on the web yesterday and came across various posts > (with various dates) of an article by Dr. Ugur Akinci on FM's "Pending" > Marker option, eg,: > > http://www.technicalcommunicationcenter.com/2009/02/22/technical-writing-how-to-use-the-pending-marker-in-framemaker/ > > The problem is, "Pending" doesn't seem to be one of the Markers available in > FM9.
