Extracting or deleting content across books in multiple languages

Hi there,
I'm writing a book in FrameMaker 9 that will be translated into seven languages. Some time after it's translated, I'll need to assemble different versions that exclude parts of the original book. I'd like to be able to assemble the new versions in English, then apply them to the other languages so that the same pieces are automatically excluded in each language. Conditional text comes to mind as a possible way to do this. Does structured FrameMaker offer a better way?
Also, I might want to assemble a new book from parts of different English books, then have the same version assembled automatically from the books in other languages. Can structured FrameMaker help with this?
Thanks,
Tami

Yeah, I rather expected it to be extra (and error-prone) work for the translators. Conditional markers don't seem to export reliably to other formats the translators might use, such as RTF for Word, so I suppose they'd have to be maintained manually.
Ok, I will check out attribute-based condition management.
Thanks Michael!
Tami

  • Robohelp 10 Translating Content(topics) into Multiple Languages (French and many more)

    Hi Every one,
    Do any one know, how to translate whole content(TOC-Topics) into multiple languages with the help of Robohelp 10. Is it possible to translate data to other languages such as French, German, and Spanish.
    Please provide proper solution for the same.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Nutan Shinde

    Are you asking if Rh does the transalation for you? If so the answer is no. No help authoring tool does that.
    The translation process is covered in a number of threads on the forum.

  • CAUTION-MAJOR BUG Address Book's "Merge Selected Cards" DELETES CONTENT!

    I have just realized (after losing much data) that when using the Merge Selected Cards function within the Apple Address Book that it will, without notification, delete content! That's right, if the two cards share different data but have the same field labels, Address Book will merge the two and simply keep the content in the 1st record (deleting the content in the 2nd).
    For example... Two records (same contact), one record with a home-email and home-number and one with a work-email and work-number. However since both happen to have default field labels of "email" and "number" when you select "Merge..." you don't end up with two emails/numbers in the merged contact you actually only have the content from the 1st record.
    Essentially "Merge Selected Records" = "Delete 2nd Record"
    This is a major error. The feature should be removed asap until it is corrected!!

    This bug still affects the Address Book v5.0.3 which is updated with the Mac OS X 10.6.5 update which has just been released.
    Apple have been notified of this bug as far back as November 2009.
    There are at least 3 separate RADAR bug reports about this issue.
    There have been 3 Mac OS Snow Leopard updates since the bug was reported to them. The bug has not been fixed in any of these updates.
    The bug does not affect Address Book v5.0
    It does affect Address Book v5.0.1
    It does affect Address Book v5.0.2
    It does affect Address Book v5.0.3
    Apple were notified in November 2009 after Address Book v5.0.1 was released that this problem existed. We also told Apple customer support. We told the Apple Store Regent Street Geniuses. We emailed Apple Developer Bug Reporting and were initial told they were aware of it, then we received no more replies.
    The original thread in the forums detailing this issue is now archived even though the bug remains. So we cannot reply and update that thread.
    We suggest you try and make as many people at Apple aware of this issue as we think it is very poor that they are aware of a serious data loss bug for 12 months and havent rectified it in many software and Address Book app updates.

  • Can iTunes share purchased content across Apple IDs within one household, OR

    QUESTION ONE
    Will iTunes share purchased content using TWOApple IDs, across different devices within one household?
    QUESTION TWO
    Should each device with a separate user have its own iCloud ID? CONCURRENTLY, should each device belonging to the SAME user use the SAME cloud ID?
    QUESTION THREE
    I think I "can" use one Apple ID, and just usedifferent iCloud IDs for EACH device. Am I fundamentally wrong? Am I legallywrong?
    UNDERSTOOD FACTS:
    1)  Apple states, each person should have their own AppleID:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37 
    2)  iCloud servicesare: mail, contacts,calendar etc...
    3)  iTunes servicesare: music, videos, Apps, etc...
    You can sync iTunes across up to5 different computers using your Apple ID: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420, however there does not seem to be alimit of how many Apple devices youcan sync within using a single iTunes account (Apple ID). *NOTE: beware automaticsynchronization of new apps..
    4)  iTunesin the Cloud is a different animal altogether! This should allow sharing of all iTunes content across all “your” devices, aslong as it was purchased thru iTunes (If not, you need to shell out an additional $25/yr for iTunes Match)
    SCENARIO:  I got a new iPhone, and am giving theold iPhone to my spouse. ALL iTunes content has been managed and purchased using oneApple ID that matches one iCloud ID. Ideally, just like anyother family using multiple Apple products and usingiCloud; we would like to SHARE songs & Apps, but NOT share calendars, mail etc...(sharing contacts would be nice).
    QUESTION FOUR
    Under the above scenario, must I have a “.me email” account?
    I have been reading threadsabout managing content across multiple devices, using different IDs, both AppleIDs and Cloud IDs, and there is a LOT of confusion. I'm visual, so I've attached the graphic illustrating how I "think" I should proceed.  **I have not set up the new iPhone yet.
    We do not have a Mac or a".me email" account, and we use Gmail.
    Any help is appreciated!

    I have the computer authorized to use the Apple ID content (been using iTunes since 2007).
    My issue is I cannot create sperate iCloud IDs for each device. I get prompted/directed to create a new Apple ID, which is what I want to avoid. I want to use one "FAMILY" AppleID as it is, and use iCloud IDs for each device.
    My logic is: ALL my purchases are tied to an AppleID, and I just want to share on devices that leave the house, like another iPhone.
    So- what to do? How to get a seperate iCloud ID without a seperate AppleID? I have an iPhone & iPad, husband has an iTouch & iPhone. How to share selectively? All devices were originally setup using one Cloud ID and one Apple ID. Now I need new IDs to represent the new user on the iTouch & iPhone.

  • How can i get a pdf from my iPhone to my new macbook? I keep trying to sync but it says it will delete all the books/pdfs on my phone. I don't have this pdf on my computer and don't want to lose it. Help please!

    How can i get a pdf from my iPhone to my new macbook? I keep trying to sync but it says it will delete all the books/pdfs on my phone. I don't have this pdf on my computer and don't want to lose it. I am using the same iTunes account. Any suggestions?

    Hello ashlyn888,
    Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:

  • How can I delete my address book data

    Running Lion. I've read in several post that the data file is in home folder/library/application support/AddressBook.
    To test this I set up a temporary user account, added a few contacts to the address book, quit the application, deleted the entire AddressBook folder and contents in home folder/library/application support/AddressBook, re-launched Address Book and the new contacts I just created are still there.
    I quit address book, deleted this same folder and contents again, this time also deleted all address book preference files in library/preferences, re-launched address book and the new contacts are still there.
    Anyone know where the data file is really kept? In a brand new user account there aren't many files in home folder/library so it shouldn't be too hard to find but I sure can't seem to.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    PS. For those who want to know "why". I believe my daughter's Mac has a corrupt address book data file so I want to start over "fresh" but can't seem to locate where the true data file is.
    Thanks,

    "Perhaps for recovery or  sync, don't know"
    This was just a possible but the sync part of it really isn't possible in this case. In setting up a new temporary account on my Mac it would be an account without an iCloud or MobilMe account so there would be no syncing involved.
    Address Book data for each user's account will be stored only within that users account. The fake contacts I've created in the temporary user account certainly don't show up in any other account.
    Your behaviour "if I delete the files mentioned, there is absolutely nothing left." is exactly what I would expect. Just can't figure out (yet) what's going on, on my Mac because this expected behaviour is not happening.

  • Powershell to add/delete content type to particular library alone in a site collection

    Hi,
    I am trying to add and delete content type from a particular picture library (site collection) using powershell.
    I have tried the below, but it is not working.
    Below scenarios are not working:
    1) If the content type to be added is there in library, then the loop is still moving to "No content type exists".
    2) Content type is not getting deleted from library
    3) Set the newly added content type as default content type.
    Below is the powershell, which I am trying:
    function ChangeContentType($url)
    $site = Get-SPSite($url);
    $web =$site.RootWeb
    $lookForList = "PicLibrary"
    $lookForCT = "Img1ContentType"
    $lookForRemoveCT = "Image2CT"
    write-host "Checking site:"$web.Title
    #Make sure content types are allowed on the list specified
    $docLibrary = $web.Lists[$lookForList]
    if ($docLibrary -ne $null)
    $docLibrary.ContentTypesEnabled = $true
    $docLibrary.Update()
    if (($web.ContentTypes | where { $web.Name -eq $lookForCT }) -eq $null)
    write-host "No content type exists with the name" $lookForCT "on list" $docLibrary.Title

  • Single-sourcing: Deleted content in FM source not reflected in RH update

    I discovered today that, when I delete content in my linked FM source, the same content is not deleted or even marked as 'changed' or anything in the RH update!
    In one situation, I deleted an entire chapter but the topic wasn't deleted.
    In another, I deleted a section of a chapter, but the section wasn't deleted from the topic. In both cases, I saved the changes in FM before running the update in RH.
    Is this a known but undocumented feature? Did I miss a setting somewhere? Is there a fix or update?
    It pretty much invalidates the whole purpose of 'linking and updating.' 
    Win 7, TC3.

    Bizarre. With another linked book, the deleted FM content was deleted from the RH project. I can't figure out why it worked with one book and not the other.

  • Scheduling extraction queue deletion

    I need to delete the extraction queue's content, before filling the setup table.
    While I can schedule the setup job, I can't schedule a job for deleting the queue. I'd like to schedule both the deletion of an extraction queue and the setup job. The start condition for the setup job would be the end of the deletion job.
    I'm annoyed at waiting midnight just for deleting the extraction queue with LBWQ...
    But what's the name of the report for deleting a particular extraction queue (e.g. for application 13, invoicing)?
    Cheers, Davide

    I have at looked the source code of the RSTRFCM1 report, which is called when deleting a queue from LBWQ.
    This fragment of code deletes a queue. It needs two input parameters: the queue's name and the destination.
    REPORT zbw_extractqueue_delete .
    PARAMETER: qname LIKE trfcqout-qname DEFAULT 'MCEX??',
               dest LIKE trfcqout-dest DEFAULT 'NONE'.
    DATA sl_entry(96).
    CONCATENATE sy-uname '&' qname ','
                dest INTO sl_entry.
    CALL 'C_WRITE_SYSLOG_ENTRY' ID 'TYP'  FIELD space
                                ID 'KEY'  FIELD 'Q22'
                                ID 'DATA' FIELD sl_entry.
    CALL FUNCTION 'TRFC_QOUT_DELETE_QUEUE'
         EXPORTING
              qname = qname
              dest  = dest.

  • Shortcut for deleting contents of folder?

    Anyone know of a shortcut to delete contents of a folder without deleting the folder itself? I would like to select multiple folders and trash the contents, but keep the folders and names intact.

    Well, I am not very experienced in this area, but if I were in your place I would see whether I could use Automator (or Applescript, for that matter) to perform this task. It sure seems like Automator should be able to do this without too much trouble. Of course, depending upon your experience, it may take longer to figure out how to make the workflow in Automator (or write the Applescript) than to do the whole thing manually. It is possible, I guess, that someone has already constructed such a thing and you could find it with an internet search.

  • How can I delete the purchased books list in iBook?

    How can I delete the purchased books list in iBook?

    Hi,
    Yes you are miss understanding the problem.  To clarify. The problem is not how to delete the book from a device, it is how to delete the puchase (i.e. the history).  You can hide it in your account settings, but you cannot delete it. So if you buy something on a shared account (i.e. a family account like mine), your children can see and download any of your puchases - forever.
    Some will say it's for your protection.  A bit like the shop looking after your receipt, so that you cannot lose it.
    However, I thought that as part of the data protection act, you could ask for this information kept about you to be deleted, but this doesn't apply to Apple purchases.  Believe me I've tried.

  • How do I delete contents from my iCloud account  to free- up space

    Recently i replaced my damaged iPhone with a new one. I could restore the contents to new phone. But now I am not able to update the iCloud from my new phone as it says that "Not enough space". This leads to the question - how do i remove all the contents in my iCloud account?
    Also when I login into my iCloud account using PC, I see there are 2 phones shown against my account and I am not able to delete one of them?
    Any tips for both these issues.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can delete contents in your iCloud storage from your device using settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage storage. Swipe the individual content to the left to reveal the delete button.
