If you’re not sure whether a document has element definitions,
open the Element Catalog and click in a text flow. If you see elements
in the catalog, the document has definitions. You sometimes must
select the All Elements option to get elements to appear. Select
Element > Set Available Elements for the All Elements option.
If you are using a structured template, then element definitions
are usually defined in it. However, sometimes your application developer
may provide you with an EDD or DTD that you can directly import
into your documents.
Open the template, EDD, or DTD with the element definitions.
The template, EDD, or DTD must be named and saved.
Create a blank document or open the document or book that
you want to update. If a book window is active, select the documents
you want to update.
In the document or book you’re updating, choose File >
Import > Element Definitions.
Choose the template, EDD, or DTD from the Import From Document
pop-up menu. The pop-up menu lists all open and named documents.
To remove special formatting and book-related changes in
the document, do the following:
To remove format rule
overrides, select While Updating, Remove Format Rule Overrides.
Use this setting if you have made text or paragraph formatting changes
to elements and now want to return to the formatting described in
the EDD or DTD.
To remove element information derived from a book file, select
While Updating, Remove Information Inherited From Book. Use this
setting if the document used to be included in a book but is now
a stand-alone document.
Click Import. FrameMaker adds the element definitions to
the document’s Element Catalog, replacing existing definitions.
