I am quite new with FM7.1 structured. iw ould like to opena DTD in order to change it. Waht is the dataformat of a DTD? Is it possible to extract froma structured FM template a EDD and a DTD.
I would like to define a table in DTD / EDD in order to have an XML file which I open in FM structured appearing as a table. is that possbile?
As I said I am quite new and these are might be stupid question
Thanks for any hints

Hi Ivoo,

Short answers to your questions:

1. DTD is a plain ascii file and it can be edited with any text editor

2. You can derive the edd from a structured document and the dtd from that edd with framemaker tools. Both files would be quite messy, however. Secondly, you need to have so-called read/write rules in place before writing/reading dtd from edd.

A good starting point into the world of structured framemaker and XML is the online manual "Structure_Dev_Guide.pdf"
