Much of your work on your Publisher project will involve mapping FrameMaker components to their corresponding Publisher styles. Table 1: describes how FrameMaker components are processed in Publisher.

Treatment in Publisher
|
Description
|
---|---|---|
Paragraph tags
|
Mapped to Publisher paragraph styles
|
You can create a mapping for each paragraph tag used in your FrameMaker files or you can use a single Publisher style for several FrameMaker paragraph tags.
See Paragraph styles for details.
|
Character tags
|
Mapped to Publisher character styles
|
Formatting overrides in the FrameMaker files can also be mapped to character styles.
See Character styles for details.
|
Master pages
|
Ignored
|
Publisher converts only the information in the main flow of your document, so information on the master pages is ignored. Page numbers, running headers, graphics, and other master page items are not converted.
You can, however, set up WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition page styles to provide header and footer information in the generated output.
|
Table tags
|
Mapped to Publisher table styles
|
Complex FrameMaker formatting is difficult to reproduce because output formats typically have limited table formatting features.
See Table styles for details.
|
Color definitions
|
Ignored
|
The FrameMaker color catalog is ignored. Colors used in graphics are preserved when the graphics are converted.
|
Document properties
|
Ignored
|
N/A
|
Reference pages
|
Ignored
|
N/A
|
Variable definitions
|
Treated like regular text-no special processing
|
Be sure the variables in your FrameMaker files are defined correctly before you convert-you cannot change the definitions in WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition.
|
Cross-reference formats
|
Converted to hyperlinks (or jumps)
|
You can modify the cross-reference formats in WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition to eliminate page numbers and other cross-reference features. Both the source and target references must be in the project.
|
Conditional text settings
|
Publisher settings are used
|
FrameMaker settings are used-the conditions you have turned on and off in your FrameMaker files determine what text WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition processes.
|
Math definitions (equations)
|
Converted as graphics
|
See Graphics styles for details.
|
Marker types
|
Mapped to Publisher marker style definitions
|
Automatically mapped by Publisher.
You cannot change the automatic mappings created by WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition. Only WebWorks Publisher Professional Edition gives you the ability to change marker mappings. Visit http://www.webworks.com for more information.
|
Graphics
|
Each graphic is mapped to a graphic conversion style
|
The Publisher graphic style determines the format and appearance of the output.
See Graphics styles for more information.
|
Fonts
|
Font settings are not preserved
|
Font encoding is processed to ensure that your special fonts (such as Symbol) produce useful output.
See Font encodings for more information.
