Why FrameMaker?


                  • allows the greatest
                    range of print and
                    PDF output
                  • easy ePub output,
                    and integration
                    with RoboHelp for
                    other online
                    formats
FrameMaker Best Practices
(not exclusive to linked projects!!)

• Consistent and rigid style usage
• Enforce template usage across docu team
• Ensure book and chapter files open without
  “missing resource” messages
• Ensure book file updates without Book Error
  Log messages
• Save early, save often!
When to author in RoboHelp?

               • Primary output is
                 Help, not print
               • Customization of
                 HTML is required
RoboHelp Single Source Layouts are in
place for:
  – XML Output (required by FM to generate ePub
    output)
  – AIR
  – WebHelp (for quick testing)
You actually mentioned MS Word…

                • FrameMaker and
                  RoboHelp allow
                  importing or linking of
                  MS Word content
                • Importing=content to
                  manage within
                  RoboHelp
                • Linking=content to be
                  managed by SME’s
Generate final ePub with RoboHelp

• Select File > Generate > ePub Output…
  – If not present, select Tools > Scripts > ePub
  – To reset toolbar, right-click on menu bar, choose
    Customize, then choose Reset
• Cover will be the first page in FrameMaker
  file
• Cover image may not show in
  Adobe Digital Editions
ePub Details (RH)

                    • RoboHelp used the
                      XML Output to
                      process ePub
                    • Select the
                      appropriate TOC
                      from within the XML
                      Output SSL
Linking best practices

•   Link
•   Identify the FrameMaker TOC
•   Map
•   Update
•   Modify the Single Source Layout
When working with linked content

• Format options differ between print and
  online formats
• Content maps according to project settings
• “Odd” representations of Frame content will
  create challenging formatting issues in other
  deliverables
• HTML in RH containing FM_ is likely
  unmapped and will not be controllable in RH
CSS for online formats

• RHStylemapping.css is the default, but easily
  changed in File >Project Settings
• An additional .css will be created by
  FrameMaker to address mapping omissions
  – Do not try to edit the generated .css
• Do not change the .css mappings for linked
  content inside of the RoboHelp project
Part Two: Delivering Content

• Setting up distribution to handheld devices
Testing ePub by Transferring to
Android

• Via USB
• Drag ePub to
Processing ePub with Calibre

• Add books
• Convert books
• Save to disk
Testing by Transferring to Kindle

• Via USB
• Kindle allows transfer of both PDF and .mobi
• Drag files (all files with book title) into the
  Kindle > Documents directory
Testing by Transferring to iPad

• Drag ePub onto iPad in iTunes
  – File will be stored in Books section of iTunes
  – Book is found under iBooks app
Kindle

  • 8. Mappings are already completed • For linking details, see – roundpeg.com – mattrsullivan.com – forums.adobe.com – tmaldous.com
  • 9. Why FrameMaker? • allows the greatest range of print and PDF output • easy ePub output, and integration with RoboHelp for other online formats
  • 10. FrameMaker Best Practices (not exclusive to linked projects!!) • Consistent and rigid style usage • Enforce template usage across docu team • Ensure book and chapter files open without “missing resource” messages • Ensure book file updates without Book Error Log messages • Save early, save often!
  • 11. When to author in RoboHelp? • Primary output is Help, not print • Customization of HTML is required
  • 12. RoboHelp Single Source Layouts are in place for: – XML Output (required by FM to generate ePub output) – AIR – WebHelp (for quick testing)
  • 13. You actually mentioned MS Word… • FrameMaker and RoboHelp allow importing or linking of MS Word content • Importing=content to manage within RoboHelp • Linking=content to be managed by SME’s

When working with linked content • Format options differ between print and online formats • Content maps according to project settings • “Odd” representations of Frame content will create challenging formatting issues in other deliverables • HTML in RH containing FM_ is likely unmapped and will not be controllable in RH
  • 18. CSS for online formats • RHStylemapping.css is the default, but easily changed in File >Project Settings • An additional .css will be created by FrameMaker to address mapping omissions – Do not try to edit the generated .css • Do not change the .css mappings for linked content inside of the RoboHelp project
