FrameMaker requires that a structured flow have exactly one highest-level element. For
this reason, you cannot use a single text inset to include multiple elements at the top
level of the inset. You must use multiple text insets for this purpose.
•
FrameMaker puts an end-of-paragraph symbol after a text inset. For this reason, you
cannot use a text inset to insert a range of text inside a single paragraph. To do so, you
can translate the entity either as a FrameMaker variable (with the is fm variable
rule) or as a reference element (with the is fm reference element rule).
Examples
•
Assume you have declared an SGML SDATA entity. You also have a single paragraph
of boilerplate text to be used in your documents. You can place this text on a reference
page in a text column with a flow called BoilerPlate in the FrameMaker template for
your SGML application. If that template is the file template.doc, you could use this
rule to translate occurrences of the boiler entity to a text inset in corresponding
FrameMaker documents:
entity "boiler"
