Run the Installer

The installer application copies the program and support files into the file system.

During the installation process the maker.ini file is modified, if you’d like to preserve a copy of this file in its current state, make a backup before running the installer.

  1. Extract the installer executable file from the ZIP file.
  2. Run the installer and select the FrameMaker version to install into.

If this is the first time you are installing FM2DITA you will need to enter an authorization code before it can be used. You can request a 30-day trial code by choosing the Pubs-Tools > FM2DITA > Try Now command. Enter your trial or full authorization code by choosing the Pubs-Tools > FM2DITA > Enter Authorization Code command

If you are reinstalling, there is no need to uninstall the old version, but you may want to make a backup of the fm2dita.dll file in case you want to roll back to the previous version.
