Automatic Output Generation of FrameMaker Documents

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Fei Min,

For FrameMaker scripting, nothing beats FrameScript. I have written a bunch
of FrameMaker to PDF scripts over the years.

Subject: Automatic Output Generation of FrameMaker Documents

We're in the final (hopefully) stages of setting up our FrameMaker
documentation set of manuals to generate PDF and HTML files as part of a
nightly build, and the programmers are somewhat surprised at how
difficult this has been. We have FrameMaker 7.2 running on Windows XP.
We're using Mif2Go to create the output files, and the scripting
language is Python. Just out of curiosity, who else out there is
automatically generating their output, and what tools are you using?
