Sharon: I concur with Bill. What I cannot understand is that this was trumpeted as a FrameMaker killer yet its functionality falls far below. FM is very powerful but still needs a lot of work. For one, the presence of so many indexing add-ons indicates that better indexing and index managemen

More like a flicker than a Blaze

Blaze the FrameMaker killer? Don't make me laugh. What about a named style for everything? What about smart cross-references? What about variables? What about advanced search and replace for anything? What about diagnostic reports? XHTML, not even XML. No DITA. Adobe will be able to hav

Para size in struct doc overriding char size

All: I am using the DITA-FMx plugin for FrameMaker with EDDs derived from the DITA DTDs/schemas. The element has a number of context-based format rules that specify various para formats dependent on context. When the context is not specified in the format rules, it simply defaults to the Bo

Modularised EDDs?

Lynne Price, Kay Whatley and others: The DITA DTDs are modularised to allow ready re-use, specialisation and maintenance. Is there any way to create a modularised EDD, with a skeleton host file and modules imported as text insets? I have been studying the Adobe documentation for developing s
