ANN: 16July FM4Word webinar Sess 9) DITA FOR BEGINNERS adobe.ly/131AWZd

2013-07-15 Thread Maxwell Hoffmann
FrameMaker has been a full-fledged DITA authoring/editing solution for quite 
some time, and is a logical progression for MS Word users. Not only is it easy 
to convert Word documents to regular FrameMaker files, a relatively painless 
method can convert such files to DITA/XML files. This session focuses on how 
DITA or structured editing workspaces can be customized to make the transition 
easier for Word users. Discover how built-in DITA support creates 
fill-in-the-blank topics and why there are 3 markedly different ways to view 
and edit DITA. This session will help you determine if FrameMaker is the right 
path to DITA for you if you are outgrowing MS Word.

About the Presenter: Maxwell Hoffmann, Adobe's Global Product Evangelist for 
Tech Comm Suite, has extensive tech comm publishing experience, having worked 
for a variety of publishing vendors and translation agencies before coming on 
board with Adobe. He is a former FrameMaker product marketing manager with 
Frame Technology (before Adobe acquired the product), and has trained over 
1,200 people in scalable publishing solutions over the years.

Correction and reference pages for <$paranum> query

Are you sure that this is the correct Reference page frame? I've had situations 
where I ended up with two TOC frames on my reference pages, so I'd be changing 
one frame and getting frustrated because my changes were ignored, when in fact 
the TOC was using the other frame. 
Check by adding something obvious to the line, like 
TEST <$paranum><$paratext>   <$pagenum>
