Traditional WYSIWYG (page) view still shows exact line breaks, headers/footers and full formatting, if you are going to publish to print or PDF. New AUTHOR VIEW shows only generically formatted content with no page breaks and symbolic indents; ideal for authors who need to focus on content that may go to multiple formats beyond print. Finally, get a glimpse of how powerful XML CODE VIEW can be with INTELLIPROMPT, suggesting legal elements or attributes while you are typing. These 3 views combined help make FrameMaker 11 a full-fledged DITA/XML authoring solution.

This includes paragraph styles that have artwork form the Reference Page. Using these two features in tandem, you can easily create a two-column "CAUTION" box table that will place CAUTION artwork to the side of your text. Since the CAUTION arwork is invoked from the reference page, you can change it there once and update all instances of the CAUTION used in a new table. This allows (a) swift and easy authoring with consistent results and (b) the ability to globally update all instances of a particular segregated caution statement. With WORD, considerable effort would be required to plant consistent artwork in all instances of such a table.

For instance, you can place horizontal lines above or below a paragraph, or have a "Caution" box automatically placed above a paragraph. Writers cannot edit this artwork on the body page; one must visit the Reference Page in order to make a change. If the user revises the artwork or text in a special frame on the Reference Page, all instances associated with paragraph styles will universally update throughout the document.

As with paragraphs, character tags and tables, FrameMaker provides a catalog for object styles, which can enable you to globally update the position or appearance of named anchored frames and graphics. This functionality empowers you to achieve consistency with graphic formatting just as you have always done with text formatting.

Watch this short video to see how to select objects or portions of a vector diagram, and make them behave as hyperlinked hotspots that will jump to related text. A simple marker mechanism is used to accomplish this.

This short demo highlights how to insert a "continuation" indicator in a Table Title, and also how to add a footer row and customize it to automatically display how many pages long the table is. Although this demo focuses on print and PDF output, FrameMaker 11 tables are equally powerful for Tablet and WebHelp output.

See a quick demo of just how swiftly you can customize your table widths to suit your needs. FrameMaker 11 will automatically calculate selected column widths, let you apply the width of another column, or even resize the width of an entire table proportionally to fit within you page.

There is a separate catalog to view and choose table styles, and a Table Designer to swiftly create or modify new styles. See how easy it is to (a) modify existing table styles, (b) "update all" to globally update all tables with the same style name and (c) import table styles from one document into others. There is much more to FrameMaker tables, which will be covered in more episodes in this show.
