RW Rules vs EDD Conflict

[Ian Proudfoot]

Hi Lisa,

I think you have misunderstood the rules a little. So try this:

 

element "Graphic"

{

is fm graphic element "Graphic";

attribute "illus" is fm property entity;

}

 

This will work if the "illus" attribute is defined as type ENTITY in the
DTD.

In your EDD remove the attribute definition for "illus". This will not be
needed in the FrameMaker environment because the read/write rule is
converting the XML attribute into a FrameMaker property. The type mismatch
was because the attribute was defined as an Integer in the EDD. 

 

If the DTD does not define "illus" as ENTITY, then use this rule instead:

attribute "illus" is fm property file;

 

That's all from memory, so I hope it all works for you.

 

Ian

Subject: RW Rules vs EDD Conflict

 

 

Hello All,

 

I am working a project using FrameMaker 8.0p277.

 

I have a conflict between my Read-Write Rules and my template (my EDD, I
presume) that has me stumped. When I do a check of my rules I get the
following error:

 

"Type mismatch for the FrameMaker element (Graphic). The type defined by the
read/write rules is different from that defined by the template." 

 

The link takes me to the "is fm graphic element" statement below.

 

My rules are:

element "Graphic" 

{

is fm graphic element "Graphic";

fm property entity value is "illus";

}

 

And I have the following defined in my EDD:

 

Element (Graphic): Graphic

Attribute list

Name: illus          Integer                 Required 

Initial graphic element format

In all contexts.

Insert imported graphic file.

 

Am I missing something that is totally obvious to anyone? 

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

 

 

Sincerely,
