Hi Rick:

Ian Proudfoot is one of few persons who knows about ATA iSpec2200 DTD.  To add to Ian's comment. A defense client told us USAF does not accept FM SGML files, due to EDD problems?  The last we saw FM SGML was Version 6.  Our guess is that QANTAS Australia may have what you are after, they have a small fleet of B747 400.  However, today, Boeing PR folks claim sales of
new B747-800 Freighters to China.

Of interest to the list, Gulfstream aerospace just got a waiver from China CAA to allow bilingual
English-Mandarin AMMs, but English version rules.

Contact us off list, our interest is Simplified English which is part of ATA iSpec2200.

Thanks to Ian for posting ATA info.

Be safe - Fly safe

Hi Rick,
If the manuals are to be published as ATA iSpec2200 SGML, then you will need
to buy/obtain the specification and DTD set from Airlines for America.
https://publications.airlines.org/CommerceProductDetail.aspx?Product=313
Maybe your customer will have copies that they can provide for you?

Unfortunately I no longer have access to any of my previous ATA EDDs and
templates. If SGML is the required output then FDK or ExtendScript will
probably be essential for the AMM. Maybe even the Structure API. Some of the
ATA structures don't play well with FrameMaker objects.

Good luck
Ian
