ANN: Framescript to disambiguate "List Paragraph" style
Hi group When people author content in Word, they often use the infamous (but popular) "Bullets" and "Numbering" buttons to create bulleted and numbered lists, respectively. This will put the style named "List Paragraph" on the text. When you open the Word file in FrameMaker, you will see that the bullets and numbering has been preserved. The FrameMaker paratag is still "List Paragraph", but different autonumbering schemes have been used: ?\b\t for the bulleted lists ?.\t or .\t for the numbered lists So Frame used an override to preserve the bullets and numbering. This is okay as long as you keep the override, but it's a problem: ?If you want you maintain and update this content in FrameMaker ?If you want to convert this content to DITA In these cases, you may want to remove the overrides, but you will also need to disambiguate the "List Paragraph" style as follows: ?IF autonumbering = \b\t, THEN apply the paratag (or ) ?IF autonumbering = .\t OR = .\t, THEN apply the paratag Rick Quatro has now developed a Framescript which can do this.
