Setting up files for the conversion to XML
In this exercise, you’ll update and expand a validated Structured FrameMaker 7.0
document into XML. You need an XML or SGML application file. You’ll use one
composed for this purpose called TechDocs.
You’ll take a Structured FrameMaker 7.0 document and in the next lesson create an XML
file. You would follow similar steps to create an SGML file.
GRAPHICS FORMATS: SVG and PNG
You’ll be encountering two graphics file formats that
were developed for the Internet and for other uses where resolution needs to be sharp
while file size must be small. Both the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) and the PNG
(Portable Network Graphics) fulfill these requirements in their own ways. When first
introduced, browsers could not take advantage of them. Recently, both formats have
become more prevalent. As XML has taken hold, browsers have been formulated to use
and display them properly.
•
SVG are used when the source of the graphic is in an outlined illustration format like
AI or EPS. They have a feature that permits interactivity. Experiment by double-clicking
on an SVG graphic in the Art folder of Lesson 17. The graphic will open in your browser.
Try changing the colored circles by moving the sliders. One of the most significant
features of SVG is that because they are vector images, they are infinitely scalable, while
they retain their sharpness at any size.
•
PNG are used when the source of the graphic is in a bitmap format like TIFF or PICT.
They can be compressed very small without losing image quality, yet allow for the use of
an alpha (mask) channel, which permits the creation of transparent backgrounds in PNG
images. The overall image quality equates to TIFF, usually superior to JPEG and much
superior to GIF.
CIBColorDoc1.fm to CIBColorFinal.fm
These exercises utilize a FrameMaker file you have worked with in earlier lessons and
guide you through the steps of adding structure and validating so that you can create an
XML file that can then be used in other forms of documents. Begin by opening the
structapps.fm file and setting template applications. Then use the structure tools to read
them in order to make them the active templates for a particular session. These two basic
steps direct FrameMaker 7.0 to set up the files for conversion, while either importing for
authoring or exporting for output.
