Add appendix in DITA bookmap
Sorry for repeating this issue but I am still puzzled how to add appendices to my published DITA bookmap.
Shortly, I use FrameMaker 2019 and to create my book, I use a DITA bookmap, where each chapter is a dita map. In the bookmap, I then specify the type of each dita map, such as chapter or appendix etc. In FrameMaker help, it is "as usual" vaguely and without clear examples, stated:
A bookmap is a specialized DITA map that allows you to organize and print your DITA topics as a book. A bookmap defines elements such as chapter and appendix. A DITA map does not impose structural rules with regards to the sequence of the topic references. However, to maintain a book structure, the bookmap defines rules such as disallowing a chapter element after the appendix element.
However, if you just do as mentioned above, the appendices appear as chapters in the publisahed book, ignoring the type, specified in the bookmap! In an other post, it is suggested that one can use an appendix template by accrodingly editting the ditafm.ini. Probably, this is the way to go, but I do not see how a new template can be applied to my DITA bookmap if there is no place for it under DITA Options.
