TCS 4 as DITA out-of-the-box solution

I went to a presentation last week given by Maxwell Hoffman from Adobe on TCS v4.x. He stated that TCS v4.x is an out-of-the-box DITA solution that contains DTDs, EDDs, etc, so you don't have to go to third-party solutions to obtain the necessary pieces. Has anyone used TCS v4.x as a complete

Re: How to generate an index of names without markers (or by automated insertion of markers)

Hi Björn I think you could do this with search-and-replace, especially for names that aren't also words. For example, make an index marker for the name Bradbury, then paste the marker immediately after an instance of the name Bradbury. Then copy the name + the marker. Then use

Yves, At this point I am only using MySpace on SharePoint, and I have a number of .dita and .xml files stored there. As I have recently had a machine upgrade and software upgrade (From XP to 7, Office 2007 to 2010, and TCS3 to TCS4 - and IT also upgraded from SPserver 2007 to 2010) I can't tell

Re: Fm+Sharepoint?

We're using FM 11 and SharePoint 2010. Our DITA project has a few hundred files. For check-in/check-out and version management, it's acceptable. The time to load the list of files when you want to insert a graphic into a topic is measurable in long seconds, and I wish that were faster. I'd

Hi Gillian... As I'm sure you're aware, I'm a big proponent of using Frame for DITA authoring, but I do try to remain reasonably objective when comparing it to other DITA tools. The big thing that sets TCS apart from other DITA authoring tools is that in addition to authoring, it provides a

Hello Gillian Regarding your question about TCS4 being the complete solution for DITA. You have to analyze that statement rather carefully and remember it's from the evangelist! The comments below are from a TCS4 user. First, several of the components of TCS4 have nothing at all to do with

I am currently working a contract for a company where we are writing DITA files using FM11 (not TCS 4). Producing DITA using FM 11 is fairly easy, but there as some caveats. The built in EDDs, etc. allow producing more-or-less adequate PDF using SaveAsPDF from ditamap files. To get TOCs,

Confluence 4 export: the one feature that would justify my upgrading from FM10

Confluence excerpts are comparable to FrameMaker text insets, not conditional text. What are you using conditional text for? Few of the things I've used it for in FrameMaker make any sense in a wiki. On Tue, Nov 27, 2012 at 4:08 PM, rebecca officer wrote: > Oops, I meant "Confluence excerpts".

Ah, so you're using conditional text like text insets. Neither Confluence nor any other extant wiki is set up for reusing content. We discussed that in detail in July in the "Single sourcing from Frame and a wiki ... or something ..." topic you started. As I noted there, AutoDesk's hybrid system
