Hello,

I am a newbie at creating EDDs, importing DTDs and exporting to SGML or XML. My task is to import a DTD with external entities, modify the EDD, import the SGML files into FrameMaker, modify the text/data and export to XML.

Background: I have sample SGML files, DTD and external entities which were created with a different software than FrameMaker. I imported the DTD into a FrameMaker New EDD using DocBook application and received no errors. I imported the DTD into a FrameMaker New EDD using No application and received several errors. I tried importing one of the SGML files into a structured file with the EDD where I used the DocBook application, but was unsuccessful as it was looking for the external entities which I have not referenced in the EDD yet. I am using the Adobe FrameMaker 7.0 Structure Application Developer's Guide Online Manual for direction.

Question 1) Do I list the external entities path and file name in the Entity Declaration Reference Page?

Question 2) Do I list the external entities before or after importing the DTD?

Question 3) Why would the DTD import with no errors using the DocBook application and many errors when importing it with no application?

Thank you for your assistance.

Carol
