A sample conversion table and content files are provided for testing and review.
FM2DITA installs a file named FM2DITA_samples.zip, which contains a structure application and sample FrameMaker content that can be used for testing and review. This ZIP file will be installed to the FrameMaker\Pubs-Tools folder.
Copy this file to a location on your system and extract the contents. After extraction, you’ll see a folder named fm2dita-samples that contains three folders, source, images, and out. It also contains a file named f2d-conv-table.fm (this is the sample conversion table).
The conversion table is set up to convert the sample unstructured FM files to structured files, and it contains notes that explain each row in the table.
All of the FM files are saved as version 7.2 files, so if you’re opening them on a later version of FrameMaker, you may want to open them all and save them so they are saved as the proper version to avoid needless messages.
If you’re using a Trial version of FM2DITA, you’ll want to remove two of the files from the book, since the Trial version doesn’t allow processing of more than 3 files (you’ll get a message each time you try to process a book with more than 3 files).
To run the full conversion on the sample files, you can follow the guidelines in Typical Conversion Process. In Task 3, where you run specific FM2DITA commands, you only need to use the following commands (the provided fm2dita.ini file is set up as needed for these commands).
