Hooking up DITA structure and house style(s)

OK ... I've never yet managed to get a DITA project up and running to the point where I can work on it every day with a view to delivering something. But today I hope this has finally changed, so I'll start trying to post here and improve my grasp of the essentials. My thanks to all those, especially Rick Quatro, who have replied to earlier postings now sunk beneath the forum's event horizon never to be seen again <g>
First question, leaving myself wide open to correction:
I observe, on opening a DITA file in FM 9.0p237, that FrameMaker has thoughtfully provided a slew of styles related to elements and their position in the document structure. I am aware that really clever people can set up rules so that formatting is applied very cleanly, without using styles; but (certainly at this early stage) should I try updating the style-definitions based on what we're already used to?
"title.0", for instance: from the Element Context Format Rules, it looks as though that's equivalent to a chapter heading where my not-technically-speaking-structured documents would use the style ":h1".
Got to learn somehow! so thanks in advance for pointers along the path to enlightenment.

Niels,
I have played only a little with DITA in FrameMaker, but my understanding is that your basic files are XML files, not FrameMaker files. So, yes, read/write rules are always present. They are needed to read the XML file into Frame and again to output the Frame file to XML. BUT read/write rules have to do with the structure, not the formatting. The formatting is in the styles embedded in the template AND in the application of formatting done by the EDD. When Frame reads the XML file, it applies the read/write rules to get certain things (such as tables) into Frame objects. It copies that structure into the template specified in the structure application. The EDD embedded in that template then applies the formatting. When you save the file to XML, only the structure is output, not the formatting. So, if you change a style in a DITA Frame document, it is lost when you save the file to XML. So, if you decide to change a style, then you should change it in the template and/or the EDD, not from within the Frame document itself. Of course, if you DO change the style in your Frame document, you can always import that style into the template; then it will be there the next time you open the XML file. If you want different types of documents to have different style sets, then you will have to create different templates, which of course, can have the same structure definitions, ie, DITA structure definitions.
I do not use the Show element context tab, but I took a look at it. It appears to be showing the formatting rules that will be applied to the element containing the insertion point. If you use it to change a formatting style, then the change is only in the Frame file, which will be lost when the file is saved as XML.
I suppose one could work entirely within a set of Frame files, saving your work as Frame files, not XML. Then your style changes will stay with the document, but that leads to maintenance issues, having different versions of one style in different documents. And I am not sure how that situation would play with the DITA structure application built into Frame.
Hope this helps,
Van

  • Script needed to generate a list of paragraph and character styles from the Book Level

    Hello,
    I am using FrameMaker 11 in the Adobe Technical Communication Suite 4 and I need to find a script that will generate a list
    of paragraph and character styles from the book level.
    I am working with unstructured FrameMaker books, but will soon be looking at getting a conversion table developed
    that will allow me to migrate all my data over to Dita (1.1 for now).
    Any thoughts, ideas on this is very much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Jim

    Hi Jim,
    I think the problem you are having with getting a response is that you are asking someone to write a script for you. Normally, you would have to pay someone for this, as it is something that folks do for a living.
    Nonetheless, I had a few minutes to spare, so I worked up the following script that I believe does the job. It is very slow, clunky, and totally non-elegant, but I think it works. It leverages the book error log mechanism which is built in and accessible by scripts, but is spendidly unattractive. I hope this gives you a starting point. It could be made much more beautiful, of course, but such would take lots more time.

  • ESATA and "housed" internal drive connection to MACBook

    Hello,
    I have a MAC Pro and old style white MACBook. As a fallback in case my MAC Pro gives up the ghost once we have moved out of Apple Support territory (could be 4 years), it has been suggested that I might take an external Drive housing with me so I would be able to access my data in the event the unthinkable would happen to my 3 year old MAC Pro with four hard drives... Would I be able to use an eSATA connection (don't know what it is but guessing its a plug in type adapter for the SATA connection... I think that means it will not connect to the MACBook. Is that right?
    What is the best connection I could make to the MACBook noting it does have a FW400 port? Any recommendations on a housing or alternative idea would be gratefully received.
    Many thanks, Floor
    PS. I use the Pro for FCE HD video editing and Aperture in case that influences any response(s).

    If the hard drive you linked to is the drive you have, you can get an external SATA drive enclosure. Depending on your preference, you can get one that connects via USB, Firewire, or both (the choice is yours). You just need to make sure that you get an SATA enclosure. Here are some examples:

  • Add / Save paragraph and characters styles in PDF

    Hi all,
    We recently did some tests with PDF to ePub export (different settings, different tools). What we saw is that none of the tools were able to respect paragraph and text styles. They just threw some text back to the screen (ePub Reader). This brought us to the philosophical discussion whether it is possible to export / add character and paragraph style information in a PDF, as we know it from e.g. Adobe InDesign (via the content stream, through metadata) so "a" tool can access that information to use it for exporting (properly) to ePub or another file format. So is there a PDF-standard or 'variant' (PDF/X, PDF/VT, PDF/A, ISO 32000 as such) that would make such a construction possible? And if so, would 'a' tool (e.g. PDF to ePub conversion tool) be able access that information to translate the style info etc. to another file format (e.g. a proper e-Pub file). BTW: we tried 'Create tagged PDF' out of Adobe InDesign, but that didn't help the outcome very much.
    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, it is quite possible and in fact Adobe InDesign will/can produced Tagged PDF that incorporates this information.
    Of course, that means that tools needs to respect it when they read/convert the PDF.  to my knowledge, NONE of the 3rd party PDF conversion tools support PDF tags/structure ☹.

  • Validate Street and House Number in the Customer Master Data (xd01/xd02)

    All.
    I need to validate if the fields street and house number are in blank in the Customer Master Data transaction (xd01/xd02). I found an user-exit (EXIT_SAPMF02D_001), which I can validate the customer data (KNA1, KNB1, etc) before to save. The problem is in the KNA1 structure, there aren't the fields street (STREET) and house number (NOUSE_NUM1), there is only the field STRAS, which street and house number values are concatenated.I solved this problem using field-symbol to catch these values in the screen, but I know it isn't a good solution. Is there another solution to solve this ? I had problem using this user-exit. It shows a message error type 'E' when either field street or field house number are in blank, after show this message if the user click in the tabs navigator button before press enter button, the transaction shows the error message "System error on reading table  DYNTAB, screen no. 0370". Does Somebody know this problem?
    Best regards,
    Alexandre
    ps: I'm coding in the ECC 6.

    Amit.
    Thanks for your suggestion, but I need to validate these values typed by the user. When I create a customer, I can't get these values in the ADRC table.

  • Paragraph and Character styles in Fireworks

    Hi
    i used fireworks for a while, when it was still macromedia product, glade to see all the improvments in CS5.
    i used Photoshop to create a very specific prototyping (including all CSS properties) of my website, but when i come to prototype the rest of the pages i totaly lost control, than i realize Photoshop is not the right tool for prototyping a whole website.
    fireworks shuld be the answer of my prays, as i could read in the articles, in CS5 you can set all properties for text and fireworks will export it as CSS file, than al you have to do is copy and paste code according to your CSS structure, that grate time saver.
    but one thing is really betters me, you cant do really good prototyping if you dont have the ability to create a paragraph and character styles (as you would with InDesign)
    can fireworks create styles in the level of Indesign? and if not, what is the right workflow between Fireworks and Indesign?
    Thanks
    S

    Window > Find and Replace will enable you to change all the instances of a text color in the entire document.
    You can create your own character styles by saving them in the Styles panel. To do this, click on an instance of a style you want to save, and then on the little down arrow at the top right of the Styles panel to open the New Style menu. Select which characteristics you want to save, then click the OK button to close the panel. To apply your custon style, select the object you want to apply it to, then click on your custom style.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs

    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:

  • What is diff b/w Include Structure and Append Structure at Database Level

    Hi Experts,
    Could you please let me know what is the main difference between .Include Structure and .Append Structure at SE11?
    Thanks in advance and for good answer will give good points.
    Sekhar

    Hi,
    1. Append Structures
    Append structures can only be assigned to a single table.
    Append structures are created in the custome rnamespace ( ZZ or YY)
    In case of new versions of the standard table during upgrade, the append structures are automatically appended to the new version of the standard table
    Append structures can not be used with cluster and pool tables
    Append structures are created in transaction SE11. Display the standard table fields and press the Append structure button.
    When you press the button, SAP sugests a name for the new append structure. After you has accepted the name,
    a screen will be shown where you can enter the new fields.
    Remember to activate.
    2. Customizing Includes
    Some of the SAP standard tables contains special include statements called Customizing includes. In contrast to Append structures,
    Note that customizing includes are created by SAP, but the customer supply the fields for the include.
    Customizing includes begin with CI_ and is part of the customer namespace
    One Customizing include can be inserted into more than one table.
    You can find Customizing includes in SE11 under structures.
    Try to take a look at table RKPF which uses the Customizing include CI_COBL (In an IDES system). Next try to add a field to CI_COBL, and activate it. If you go back to table RKPF you will se that your new field has been added.

  • Fields missing in MPD report after change to structure and program

    I have been working on a consistency report for transaction MPD.
    I had created a structure in SE11 for handling the data.  it was all working, but then i had to go and change the name of the fields in the structure.  Now those fields are missing from the report. 
    When i step through the debugger, all the fields are being populated correctly, but these fields are not displayed on screen.  if i change the field names back in the structure and change the code for populating these fields, they appear okay.
    i have created a custom implementation within BAdi MPD_WKB_REPORTING. 
    i have checked the config and it all points to my Z Structure and Z Table Type.  I have logged off and logged back on!  made sure my code is saved and activated...
    any ideas on how i can display these new fields names/values?
    Just for clarity, the field name has changed. not the linked data type.

    thanks for your response, however those notes and program have not done anything to assist my issue.
    i have found the anwser now!
    within the BAdi was a method i had to amend:  IF_EX_MPD_WKB_REPORTING~GET_ALV_PARAMETERS 
    all fixed now!

  • I need to make a task with less as3 code and more timeline structure and event dispatcher !

    I went to an interview in a big company. I had to make a  task in which there is a wall with 3 lines and 5 columns filled with bombs.When you click on a bomb the bomb changes its scale, a robot enters, goes under the bomb and takes it, then goes to a smaller wall, makes the bomb smaller and place it at the same place it had been in the previous wall.I made the task with tween througout as3 code.The interviewer told me it was good but i need to make it with the less code possible and with more complex timeline structure and to use event dispatcher.What is the best way to do this ?

    The immediate thing that comes to mind is they might want to see that you can balance work between design teams and development teams.
    To do that, the robots movements (pick up bomb, bomb grows/shrinks, arms/treads/legs moving, sequences of 'doing things') can be timeline based so animators can work on those separate from code.
    Developers would be working on the logic of keeping score, moving the robot around to the correct spot with path detection, collision detection, etc.
    It's very similar to thinking in simple factories (which Flash is good at being automatically with timelines), and a bit of MVC (or just VC in some cases).
    Big companies have lots of different types of employees so you'll probably be very specific in your role so you're efficient.

    Hello gman0700.
    Welcome to the HP Forums. I understand you are unable to produce audio through an HDMI connection. I apologize for the late response, but I will do my best to assist you. Before anything else, please answer these questions:
    1. What is the current computer's operating system? Does the same behaviour occur on multiple operating systems?
    2. The title seems to imply that there is no audio when connected to a television, using HDMI. Does this only occur when you connect to a television? Will it occur if you connect to something else using HDMI?
    3. Have you tried connecting to a television using VGA or DVI? If so, what are the results?
    As an additional suggestion, for now, I would review the television's manual to confirm that everything is correct from the television's standpoint.
    Please post this information as soon as you can. Thank you posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

    Here's what it reads, of which I got none:
    Free Delivery on TV Purchases 51" or Larger
    Best Buy will provide Standard Local Delivery of your TV. Charges apply for delivery outside local delivery area. TV will be delivered into the room of your choice and unpacked. Best Buy will assemble your TV, place it on an existing TV stand, and connect your TV to a single, existing source (satellite box, cable box or antenna) within the room. Delivery and installation may require two appointments.
    Excludes prior purchases and Best Buy Marketplace items. Not valid with other offers. Subject to availability of products and delivery capacity.
    Television Haul Away and Recycling
    We will haul away a television from your home for free when a qualifying replacement product is delivered by Geek Squad® or Best Buy Home Delivery. Then we will make sure it is properly and safely recycled. Additional TVs can be removed and recycled at a cost of $20 per unit.
    The units are responsibly recycled by our licensed, third-party recycling partners. The recyclers ensure that the various commodities are sent to end markets to be recycled and repurposed into new products. For more information, see BestBuy.com/recycling.
    >> To once again reiterate, they did not unbox my TV. They did assemble my TV. They did not hook it up.
    And they did not haul away the old TV.
    And now I can't find anyone at the Best Buy hotline to even understand what I'm trying to say.
    HELP!

    Good afternoon FranklinAvenue, 
    After receiving your TV, I'm sure you were disappointed to find services normally included were not completed. I imagine this certainly lowered your satisfaction with your TV ordering and delivery experience. 
    With most deliveries, you are correct that basic setup and haul away of the old unit are typically included. With the information you registered with the forum, I was able to locate your order and review your services. Unfortunately, it seems that haul away was not included on the service order. This may have been due to it not being selected when placing the order, or a system error. However, the basic setup should have been completed. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. 
    I also see that you were able to have setup and haul away completed on 1/5/15. I'm glad to see that we were able to return to complete these desired services. I hope that this experience has not negatively influenced your future shopping destination. 
    Sincerely, 
    Tasha|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate
