Setting up your document
The document you'll be working with contains only the information on the CEO office
chair. You will add the conditional information on the Professional model.
1 Open Condit.fm in the Lesson13 folder.
2 Choose File > Save As, enter the filename Condit1.fm, and click Save.
When working with conditional text, it is often helpful to have borders and text symbols
showing.
3 Choose View > Borders and then choose View > Text Symbols.
4 Before you begin working with conditional text, take a few moments to explore the
document. Notice the following:
• The gray circle at the top (indicating the location of a hole to be drilled in the card) is
drawn on the master page, so you can't select it or modify it here.
• The ModuLine corporate logo is also not selectable because it is included as part of the
format of the paragraph just below it (ModuLine CEO). The logo is selectable only on a
special reference page, from which FrameMaker 7.0 copies it to this body page. Placing
often-used graphics on a reference page and making them part of a format reduces file
size because the graphic only needs to be copied into the document once.
• The card is laid out in two columns; the descriptive paragraph in the middle of the page
spans both body columns.
• The illustration of the chair is in an anchored frame that's anchored to the preceding
paragraph, Ergonomically designed.
