Matt,
   Not quite. You can import them into the unstructured documents. While 
theoretically it's only necessary to apply a conversion table to an 
unstructured document once, while you are debugging the conversion table, 
it's helpful to see the results without having to import element 
definitions for each test. Importing the element definitions into the 
unstructured document means that they will be in each structured vesion 
created.

   To get back to Wim's original question, the easiest way to import 
formats and element definitions into many documents is probably to create a 
book containing all the files, select all files in the book, and then 
import templates and element definitions. No need to save the book if you 
do not need it for anything else.

conversion table and template

2008-07-16 Thread Wim Hooghwinkel - idtp 
Hi,
 
I'm using a conversion tabel to convert a lot of unstructured files to XML.
Is there a way to automatically apply a template (and it's EDD rules) to the
files when converting?

you could script the process of applying the conversion table then importing

Re: conversion table and template

Hi Wim,

Rick Quatro sells a FrameScript solution called FindChangeSpecialBatch.fsl that 
I have found extremely helpful for remapping countless FM catalogs in docs to 
what's in newer templates. You create a mapping table, and you can run the 
script from the book level. This is particularly powerful if you can create 
books for maintenance purposes that group like kinds of FM files from multiple 
books. You can save the mapping table, or multiple flavors and iterations of 
mapping tables, and select which way to remap any given book, and it only takes 
a minute or so to run the script.

If memory serves, you can import both formats & EDD into the conversion
