Developing Structured FrameMaker Applications

Developing Structured FrameMaker Applications (Workshop or Seminar)

2-day workshop

3-hour seminar

Developing Structured FrameMaker Applications presents an integrated view of application development to participants who have taken the structured FrameMaker developer classes or studied the Structure Application Developer's Guide. Lecture topics include:

Document analysis and project planning
Life cycle of an XML or SGML project
Application development scenarios (building an editing environment from an existing DTD, creating XML or SGML from a structured template and corresponding documents, using FrameMaker to format existing XML or SGML documents, handling legacy documents, structured editing without a markup language requirement, and so on)
Structured FrameMaker application development as a typical XML or SGML implementation task
Steps in structured FrameMaker application development and when to perform each one

In the workshop, attendees work in small teams to build actual structured FrameMaker applications. By prior arrangement, participants can use their own documents for these exercises. The seminar presents the same material without the classroom exercises.
