LESSON 14
346
Hypertext and PDF
This lesson uses a book file that contains two chapters of a textbook on electricity. You’ll
generate a table of contents and index that are linked to the chapters by means of
hypertext commands. You’ll then see how cross-references can become hypertext links in
view-only files. You’ll enhance the documents for online use by adding hypertext
navigation buttons. Finally, you’ll convert the files to Portable Document Format (PDF)
to compare this type of online distribution with FrameMaker 7.0’s built-in ability to
create view-only hypertext documents.
If you want to see completed versions of the sample files, open the Finished folder in the
Lesson14 folder.
You’ll learn how to do the following:
•
Create a table of contents and an index that contain hypertext links.
•
Modify a cross-reference format to make it clearer that cross-references work as
hypertext links.
•
Test hypertext commands in the documents of a book.
•
Add a graphical navigation bar that uses hypertext commands.
•
Save a book file in PDF and test the hypertext links in the converted files.
Creating a hypertext TOC and index
One of the easiest ways to create hypertext commands is to generate a table of contents (a
TOC) or an index so that entries in these files automatically contain hypertext links to the
locations they refer to.
Setting up a book file
Hyper.book already has a table of contents and an index set up for you. You only have to
make a small adjustment to the setup of these files to create hypertext links automatically.

In the Lesson14 folder, open Hyper.book. (You won’t be saving copies of the sample files in
this lesson. If you want to start over, you can get fresh copies of the files from the CD-ROM.)
