Glossary Markers FM9 to RH7

Question

I hope I'm posting this in the correct place!
I am learning FM9 Structured and slowly building new templates/EDD for our large existing company user documentation.  The plan is to use RH to publish it to html, pdf, etc.
I'm trying to figure out how the glossary markers work in FM9 and how to set them up properly to be imported into RH.  No one in the FM discussion groups seems to be able to help me.  My main confusion is that I can't figure out how to mark something within FM itself.  The way I'm understanding the documentation it goes like this:
I put my cursor on the term I want to mark (for example: name)
I open the Marker pod, and select Add New.
The documentation says that what I type in the Marker Text window becomes what I think of as the term name and the paragraph that the marker is in becomes the definition.
I click New Marker and voila!
However, no matter what I try, when I create a List of Markers (glossary), all I get is whatever is in the Marker Text window and the page number. There is no Term - Definition.
There's one other thing I don't understand - but maybe this will answer itself if I could get the above to work?  My understanding of a glossary is one definition that can be linked to from many places throughout the documentation.  For example: I define Name the first time it is used, and then I can put a "name" marker anywhere else and have a pop-up or link to the name definition.  If the definition has to be in the text at every point that you insert a marker - then what would be the point?
I feel like I'm going around and around in the documentation and I apparently have some kind of mental block, because it's just not making sense.  I would REALLY appreciate it if someone could explain to me either what the process is or what I'm mis-understanding about what the process actually does.  I've tried to include the relevant info, but if you need anything else from me -please don't hesitate to ask!

Answer 1

Technical Communication Suite allows you to mark Glossary terms and definitions in FrameMaker source content, import them in RoboHelp and finally publish them to various ouput formats generated through RoboHelp.
If you are using TCS 2 or TCS 3, here are the steps to achieve it.
Marking Glossary Term and Defintion in FrameMaker
======================================
1. Place the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph in FM document which is to be marked as Glossary definition
2. Open the marker Pod (Special->Marker)
3. Select the Marker Type as "Glossary"
4. Add the Glosary term as Marker Text
5. Save the FM document
Please note that generating "List of Makers" creates a list of marker text with each term linked to paragarph it points to.
Importing FM content to RoboHelp and publishing it
=====================================
1. Create a RoboHelp project
2. Link/Import the FM document to RoboHelp project
3. Mark "Convert Glossary" option in Import Wizard or Linked document properties(Edit->Properties) dialog
4. Finally update/import the content.
5. The generated glossary(term-definition pairs) can be viewed in Glossary pod by opening the glossary from Project Manager Pod
6. If you wish to link glossary terms instances with the glossary definition within the content, you may like to use Glossary Hotspot Wizard (Tools->Glossary hotspot wizard).
7. Finally, the content can be published to various formats from Single Source Layouts pod by choosing the appropriate glossary in the SSL dialog.
I hope this helpful. Please let me know in case you need any further elaboration of any step.
