If the TiTblNumHdrRows substatement is not set to 0, the table has header rows. If the TiTblHeader-
sEmpty substatement is set to No, these rows are filled with imported text.

Publishers

Macintosh versions of FrameMaker products support text and graphics Publish and Subscribe, which
allows applications to share information dynamically between FrameMaker documents. You can make text
information available by designating it a publisher. A separate file, called an edition, is created on disk. You
can place a copy of the edition, called a subscriber, in a document, even if the edition is on another disk or
on another Macintosh on a network.
FrameMaker products treat subscribed text as text insets. Subscribed text is specified through the TextInset
statement. Published text is specified through a different MIF statement, the DataLink statement.
For more information on subscribers and text insets, see "Text insets (text imported by reference)" on
page 140.
DataLink Statement
The DataLink statement defines a text publisher. It is embedded along with the lines of text where the link
occurs. The DataLink statement occurs in a ParaLine statement.
Syntax
<DataLink
<DLSource pathname>
<DLOut Yes>
<OneLinePerRec boolean>
<MacEdition integer>
>
...(Free-form text)
<DataLinkEnd>
Usage
The MacEdition statement provides information for compatibility with Macintosh standards for creating
edition manager documents; integer points to the resource ID for the sect and alis resources in the resource
fork. This information is replicated inside the MIF description, but the information in the resource fork
takes precedence over the MIF data. If this field is missing, the MacEdition statement uses the filename in
the DLSource statement. For more information, see the chapter on Edition Manager in Inside Macintosh,
Volume VI.
Specifies the edition with a device-independent filename
Yes specifies that the statement describes a publisher
Yes treats returns as paragraphs (one line per paragraph); No treats
returns as line breaks
Points to the resource ID of the sect and alis records
Ends the DataLink statement
Para statements containing and describing the published text (see
"Para statement" on page 133)
End of the published text
