Adobe Window 8 用户手册

The following features are new to FrameMaker 8:

Author and publish unstructured and XML 

content based on the Unicode character set. 

Use Unicode characters in documents, dia-

logs, markers, and catalog entries. Author 

and maintain non-English or multi-lan-

guage documents without the need for spe-

cial FrameMaker versions or character code 

manipulation. Generate PDF files with Uni-

code-based text and Unicode characters in 

bookmarks. Use newly provided dictionar-

ies for spell check and hyphenation support 

in more than 30 languages.

Author and publish documents that con-

form to the Darwin Information Typing 

Architecture (DITA), an industry-standard 

architecture that facilitates re-use and re-

purposing of modular information units. 

Use a rich set of DITA features, including 

topic authoring, map authoring, content 

fragment reuse (conref) and book building 

from DITA maps.

Create interactive PDF documents by 

embedding SWF files directly in 

FrameMaker software. Include eLearning 

and tutorial content created using applica-

tions such as Adobe Captivate and 

Adobe Flash.

Import 3D graphics (U3D) files created 

using applications such as Adobe 

Acrobat 3D. Select parameters such as back-

ground, lighting, render mode and default 

view. Create PDF files containing live 3D 

models.

Preserve comments in XML documents. 

Save system variables to XML, and preserve 

all XML processing instructions (PIs).

Import element formatting from a cascad-

ing style sheet (CSS) to quickly define ele-

ment formatting for print and PDF 

generation.

Use improved conditional text features for 

managing and publishing multiple docu-

ment variations. Define behaviors based on 

logical operators (AND, OR, NOT) for 

overlapping conditions. Rename existing 

condition tags.

In structured documents, show or hide con-

tent based on attribute values. Leverage 

XML metadata for publishing multiple doc-

ument versions. Create logical expressions 

to define whether element content is pub-

lished or suppressed. Use Filter by Attribute 

or conditional text to manage document 

variations in structured content. Retain 

conditional text and Filter by Attribute set-

tings when saving documents to XML.

Identify text insertions and deletions during 

the document editing process. Accept or 

reject text edits individually or globally. Pre-

view documents with all edits accepted or 

rejected. Maintain text edit tracking infor-

mation when saving documents to XML.

·

Use a tabbed document view to better 

manage multiple documents in the 

FrameMaker software workspace.

·

Import content from Microsoft 

Office 2007.

·

Embed graphics references from a URL 

or directory path.

·

Automate and customize FrameMaker 

using the Frame Developer’s Kit (FDK), 

which has been updated to support 

FrameMaker 8 features.

PDF has long served the needs of instruc-

tional designers, who need to render rich doc-

uments formats and support the ability to 

distribute documents in print and online. 

Instructional designers are increasingly devel-

oping and deploying interactive content using 

applications such as Adobe Flash, 

Adobe Captivate®, and Adobe Acrobat 3D 

software. These tools allow instructional 

designers to create engaging, effective demon-

stration and tutorial content. With 

FrameMaker 8, instructional designers can 

easily integrate these rich media assets into 

traditional electronic documents.

For XML authors and publishers, 

FrameMaker provides an authoring and pub-

lishing platform that supports a variety of key 

XML standards, including DITA, DocBook, 

and XHTML. Writers can create XML content 

in a familiar WYSIWYG interface, without 

learning XML syntax. FrameMaker software’s 

“guided editing” feature supports writers in 

inserting XML elements in their proper con-

text. The authoring environment continu-

ously validates documents against the 

permitted structure, based on a Document 

Type Definition (DTD) or XML Schema. 

FrameMaker-based XML workflows can 

automatically apply XSL transformations 

(XSLT) for processing XML documents. 

FrameMaker software offers an outstanding 

XML-to-PDF solution, with rich, rules-based 

styling and high-end graphics support, inte-

grated with Adobe's market-leading PDF 

publishing technology.

FrameMaker Server 8 software brings the 

power of the FrameMaker publishing engine 

to the server environment. The FrameMaker 

Developers Kit (FDK) is an application pro-

gramming interface (API) that allows organi-

zations to use FrameMaker as an automated
