The next RTP-DITA Users group meeting will be on Jun24. Sheila Loring of
Scriptorium Publishing Services will demonstrate FrameMaker-DITA support with
DITA-FMx.
Most popular XML editors these days support DITA. Several years ago, FrameMaker
also jumped on the bandwagon to provide DITA support. You can create and import
XML documents complete with relationship tables, conrefs, cross-references, and
so on. FrameMaker even lets you generate output from the Open Toolkit and add
your own specializations.
Unfortunately, FrameMaker does not support some DITA features (such as ditaval
filtering and links that work in PDF). This is where Leximation's DITA-FMx comes
in. DITA-FMx is a plugin that let's you create and edit DITA files in
FrameMaker, offering many features FrameMaker doesn't support out of the box.
We'll have the pleasure of the Boston area RTP Users e-joining us once again,
and after the demonstration we'll share some great news about our alliance.
