Our software automatically generates one or more DITAVAL files, which record the original conditional text settings of your input documents. Condition names are automatically converted to match the DITA standard. * Automatic DITA Map Our software uses your FrameMaker book files to generate one or more (depending on your use of conditional text) DITA Maps, as well as markup to indicate which headings are to appear in the TOC. * DITA index markup Our software can analyze and convert the most complex index markers in FrameMaker and Word documents. It also automatically relocates any index markup not allowed in DITA (such as headings). * Hypertext markup SII's solution converts hypertext markup to the appropriate DITA tags. Currently, other vendors would simply drop the markup. * Lexical analyzer for improved quality. Based on Softline's grammar checker, the lexical analyzer will scan your documents to ensure that the markups agree with the actual syntax of the content.

For example, a paragraph starting with the word ?Note:? is converted to a element (with the leading word ?Note:? removed from the content, if needed.) - Words within sentences are converted to the appropriate phrase level markup. For example, XML markup ?click OK<./b>? would be replaced with ?click OK?. - Entire sections are identified for special processing. For example, a heading with the phrase ?See Also? followed by predominately cross references, is converted to a related links element instead of conventional markup. SII's lexical analyzer currently makes over 50,000 checks to identify the best markup for a particular document. The analyzer can also be set up with your own dictionary to perform any special markup. * Variables All variables are converted t
