FrameMaker 7.0 ships with a DocBook template and EDD. I'm trying to use these to make a customized layout based on a DocBook structure. So I copied the file 'template' in structure\xml\xdocbook\app to 'MyCorptemplate', opened that file in FM, and changed the paragraph styles etc. to my liking.
Now, I should be able to do the following: create a new document Untitled1.fm, selecting as template "MyCorptemplate"; open 'MyCorptemplate' and 'edd'; modify the template file; select Untitled1.fm and select File|Import|Formats... However, when I press Import in the popup window, the following message appears: "Cannot import from file because file is not open. Open the file and try again."
Can anyone explain this and/or suggest an alternative solution? Many thanks.
