Note that if you specify an attribute for formatting information in the second column, you
cannot use the attribute as a label for preserving formatting during the conversion process.
You still need to use the qualifier. For example:
Wrap this object
P:BulletItem
P:NumberItem
E:Item[bulleted]+
E:Item[numbered]+

Handling special cases

You may need to accommodate a few special circumstances or requirements in a
conversion table.

Promoting an anchored object

In an unstructured FrameMaker document, a table or an anchored graphic must be
anchored in a paragraph. The anchor specifies which paragraph to keep the object with as
an author continues to edit the document. When a user adds structure to the document, the
table or graphic normally becomes a child of the paragraph with the anchor, like this:
In a structured document, you often want a table or graphic element to be at the same level
as its surrounding paragraph elements. FrameMaker can break the table or graphic out of
its paragraph and promote the element to be a sibling of the paragraphs, like this:
