Automap

Automap picks up RoboHelp style names and maps them to the imported FrameMaker document’s styles. Instead of having to map each FrameMaker format with a corresponding RoboHelp style, use Automap to automatically map similar style names from the selected CSS in RoboHelp.

Automap compares FrameMaker format names with the style names present in RoboHelp’s mapping CSS (by default, the mapping CSS is RHStyleMapping.css).

For example, when you choose Automap at a paragraph level, the following could be mapped:

FrameMaker format name

Similar RoboHelp Style

Heading1

h1

Title

Title

Indented

Indented

CellBody

CellBody

my Numbered+

myNumbered

(Space and special characters are removed during automapping)

Body

Body

Unlike FrameMaker format names, CSS style names cannot have spaces and special characters. While mapping, RoboHelp ignores spaces and special characters in the FrameMaker format names.

A special case is that RoboHelp automaps FrameMaker’s Heading1 to Heading6 (or Heading 1 to Heading 6) paragraph styles to h1 to h6.

Automap works for Paragraph, Character, and Table formats. Table styles require handling for appearance as well as caption styles. You can also set Automap for an individual format.

When you select Automap for all paragraph, character, or table styles and style-mapping is already defined for some of the styles, RoboHelp give you the option to automap the previously mapped styles. You can select the styles you want to overwrite.

In the project settings dialog, you can also click Export to export the conversion settings as a .isf file.
