Fellow Forum Member,
I have a S1000D Publication Module (PM) file which contains XML code which integrates all required Data Modules, style sheet and schema data into a cohesive publication for PDF output. My goal is to PDF output using FrameMaker 10 the XML code within the Publication Module not relying on the S1000D Add-on Package Adobe has available for download. Instead what I want to do for convenience sake is to load the Publication Module XML code into a book and publish it as a PDF without setting up a structured application since the Schema and Stylesheet C:\path location is already included in the PM file as XML code. Is this possible?
From what I have Googled thw Schema needs to be converted to a DTD and then an EDD. The brickwall I'm hitting is importing the pmSchema.xsd file into FrameMaker. Currently, FrameMaker crashes when I try to convert my XSD schema file to a DTD. Nevertheless, my PM already contains C:\Path code that points to the where the Schema and my stylesheets are located in my C:Drive. Therefore, isn't it possible to just load the PM to a BOOK, and then hit Publish PDF? Isn't FrameMaker smart enough to just go by the Schema & Stylesheet C:\Path code that's already included inside the PM file? What is the correct way to setup a Schema in FrameMaker 10 because what I'm doing is not working. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
