Creating a project

Here's how to create a project:

  1. Start WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition 7.0: From the Windows desktop, click the Start button then choose Programs > Quadralay > WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition 7.0  > WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition 7.0. The Project Launcher window is displayed.
  2. Note: If the Project Launcher window doesn't appear automatically, select File > New to display it.



  3. In the Create a New Project section, select a template.
  4. Click OK.
  5. The New Project Wizard window is displayed.



  6. In the top field, type a name for your project.
  7. The name you supply becomes the name of your new project and also the name of the project file.

    Note: You can change this name later.

  8. By default, WebWorks Publisher stores projects in a "projects" folder where WebWorks Publisher itself is installed. If you want to change where this project is stored, click the Browse button and select a different folder.
  9. If you are using the International Edition of Publisher, select the default character set for your language. Otherwise, do not change the default character set (Latin1).
  10. Click the Next button.
  11. The New Project Wizard Add Documents window is displayed.



  12. Click the Browse button and locate the FrameMaker file or book you want to add to the project. (In Microsoft Windows, you can select multiple files.)
  13. If you select a book file, WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition 7.0 scans the book file and inserts every file in the book into your project. The book file itself is not stored in the project.

    Note: You can add more files later.

  14. For structured FrameMaker users only: If your FrameMaker documents are structured and lack corresponding formats, select the This content is structured and I want to map elements instead of formats check box.
  15. Click the Next button.
  16. The New Project Wizard Mappings window is displayed, where you set up your initial paragraph and character mappings. (If you are using SGML elements, you map element hierarchies rather than paragraph styles.)



    The FrameMaker list on the left shows the paragraph tags used in your documents. The WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition 7.0 list on the right shows the corresponding styles in Publisher.

    Publisher may automap some styles. Automapping means that the FrameMaker tag automatically has a WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition 7.0 style assigned to it. This occurs if the FrameMaker tag name matches a WebWorks Publisher tag exactly. Automapping is case-sensitive, and spaces affect the result, so the FrameMaker style "Heading1" is automapped to "Heading1," but "heading 1," "heading1," and "Heading 1" tags do not automap to "Heading1."

  17. Assign mappings to your FrameMaker paragraph tags as appropriate. Don't worry about getting this exactly right; you can always change the mappings later. Here are some recommendations:
  1. When you are finished with the paragraph mappings, click the Characters subtab at the bottom of the window.
  2. This displays the mappings for your character tags.



    The character tag mapping works just like the paragraph mapping.

  3. Assign mappings to your character tags as appropriate. In general, map tags to Default.
  4. Click Next.
  5. The final New Project Wizard window is displayed.



  6. Click the Yes, go ahead and convert the content now radio button.
  7. Click the Finish button.
  8. Publisher generates your output files and displays the main Publisher project window.
