Create a FrameMaker book from a PM

  1. Open a PM.
  2. Select S1000D > Switch to Publication Module book.

    FrameMaker creates a FrameMaker book with structure similar to the PM.

  3. To implement applicability (Global) at a book level,
    1. When the book file is in focus, select S1000D > Common Source Data.

      The S1000D Common Source Data dialog appears.

    2. In the Common Source Data dialog, select the Applicability tab and then PCT.
    3. In the list of products, select the applicable product and click Apply.

    FrameMaker processes the book file for the applicability conditions for a while. The modules that are excluded from the output are highlighted in red ().

Now you can do the following:

  • Publish the book to PDF or to IETP.

  • Switch back to the Publication Module document (S1000D > Switch to Publication Module Document). If you have added any new files to the FrameMaker book, update the book before switching back to the Publication Module document.

  • Save book as an S1000D XML file (S1000D > Save as S1000D). Update the book before saving it as S1000D.
