Hello all,
I am in need for a description of FrameMaker's internal file format. Every
piece of information may help. Reason: we get documentation files in
FrameMaker format and don't want to use FrameMaker ourselves
(partly because we think it's ugly, partly because we mostly work on non-Suns).
We want to transform the information as faithfully as possible into the
formats supported by other desktop publishing/wordprocessing/typesetting
programs. I have some experience in writing transformers for binary file
formats, so a basic description of the structure would probably be enough
for starters.
If you've got any information, please send it to hmm@unido.uucp.
Thanks in advance,
Hans-Martin
PS: No, I have not yet written to Frame directly. In my experience responses
from the net get here much faster...
