<font face="Verdana">I'm not terribly surprised about this. No,
there's nothing very useful that ships with the product. There's a
lot "out there" in blogs and wikis and maillists .. but unless you
know where to look or who to ask, you're probably out of luck. Yes
.. posting to the FM forum should have provided more than just a
reference to the docs.<br>
<br>
The problem is that "creating a DITA project" in FrameMaker is
really no different than doing that in any other XML authoring
tool. You do need to understand the structured FrameMaker UI, but
DITA is DITA regardless of the tool.<br>
<br>
I often answer those posts on the FM forum, don't know why I
missed it. :o<br>

was really surprised by the thread in the link below. I’d
heard that Adobe added cookbooks and samples to the more
recent versions of FrameMaker to help people get started
with structure, and especially DITA. Is that all hype and no
substance? Are you still hearing that people have trouble
using DITA out of the box with FrameMaker 10?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
