Converting DITA files to Structured FrameMaker

Hello,

I have DITA files need conversion to structured FrameMaker files. I tried generating conversion table with DITA files and defined elements (of structured FrameMaker that I have) against each element in the table. But this is not working.

Is there any other way to accomplish this task?

Hi Navz...

If you're just trying to "convert" DITA to structured FM, all you need to do is to open the DITA file in Frame, then save that to an "FM" file (use SaveAs). I'm thinking that there's more to this than meets the eye though. Are you trying to change the elements to some other model?

To add to Scott's reply, make sure when you open your DITA file in Frame, make sure that you are in the Structured interface (Edit > Preferences > General > Product Interface = Structured FrameMaker). If you are not in the Structured interface, FrameMaker will turn your document into an unstructured document - probably not what you want.
