Reference pages and conversion tables - workflow inquiry
Do I have to create reference pages and conversion tables for structured FM to create a good printed PDF, and work properly when imported into RoboHelp? Or what is the general workflow for someone starting from scratch with both FM and RoboHelp, and working to make a printed doc as well as online help? Thank you.

conversion tables
Hi All, I have a large group of docs (100's of docs with 100's of pages) to convert from unstructured to structured Frame and need some examples for syntax in the table. I get about 50% of the way but need to start promoting and nesting. I must use a modification of XDocBook. Any samples/examples are appreciated! (Info with Frame is very limited.)

IMHO, the whole conversion table method is very limited, not just the docs for it. Another possibility is to use Mif2Go to produce DocBook XML from your unstructured files, then bring that back into structured Frame. It should be a lot faster. You can try it out with the free unlimited demo version at: http://www.omsys.com/dcl/download.htm The User's Guide, Chapter 16, Producing DocBook XML, is very thorough. You can download the User's Guide in numerous formats (including DocBook itself ;-) from the same page. The same method, BTW, works nicely for moving from unstructured to structured Frame using DITA. We worked with members of both OASIS TC's developing it... HTH! -- Jeremy H. Griffith, at Omni Systems Inc.
