The glossary term is defined. Next, you need to apply this definition to occurrences of the term in the document.

For example, if the document contains the term PDF, you need to select the text PDF.

3)Specify the marker text as the term.

By default, FrameMaker displays the marker text as the text selected in the previous step.

After you create you glossary term definition and apply the definition to the occurrences of the term in the document, you can then publish the document. When you publish the document, you can specify how to display the glossary definition when a user selects a term in a document.
