Hi Gillian,
In the same sense both XMetaL and Oxygen also are out-of-the-box complete
DITA solutions. You can create, edit, modify, publish DITA content out of

Help etc..

Is there an old-fashioned menu-command macro recorder that's
compatible with FrameMaker 10?
I want to automate some simple but time-consuming build processes. For
example: open book, set conditions, update, save as PDF, set
conditions, update, close book, launch batch file to generate online
help.
When I evaluated Oxygen XML, it seemed like a full-featured
single-source help authoring tool much like Madcap Flare, except using
DITA as its source format. Out-of-the-box web help and PDF output
seemed of professional quality to me. I could have been productive
immediately.

FrameMaker 10 comes with DTDs, EDDs, and templates, but those did not
give me enough to go on to figure out how to create a project. The
documentation was no help, nor were the resources people on the
Structured FrameMaker forum pointed me to adequate:

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.

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

Is there anyone using FrameMaker 10 or 11 with Sharepoint? Any good or bad
experiences you wish to share?
Thanks.

I went to a presentation last week given by Maxwell Hoffman from Adobe on TCS

DTDs, EDDs, etc, so you don't have to go to third-party solutions to obtain the
necessary pieces.

You might try saving as RTF from PowerPoint and importing that into a

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 search-and-repl

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
