USING FRAMEMAKER SERVER
Creating and managing publication tasks
Typically, you author content in FrameMaker, and then define the conversion settings to link or import content from
FrameMaker to RoboHelp. In such scenarios, you define your conversion settings that include the following:
• Style mapping between FrameMaker and RoboHelp
• Master page and cascading style sheets (CSS) for the online Help format that you create from RoboHelp
• RoboHelp Project File (XPJ) that contains the definitions for output formats
With FrameMaker Server, you can create reusable profiles called Quick Sets for each online Help format. These
conversion profiles contain all the information that FrameMaker Server requires to convert the source documents to
online Help formats. When you define a publication task, you can select any of these conversion profiles or modify
them and save them for later use.
For example, for WebHelp output from an installation guide, you can define conversion settings that include master
pages with several special warning message formats. You can then save this conversion profile with a name such as
installation profile, and later select this profile for similar publication tasks.
