Documentation of API Clients?

Hi guys,

is there anywhere an official (or even better: an unofficial) documentation of the API clients that are shipped with FM11?

I had so many strange behaviors working with the standard and the DITAfm_app clients, that I grew at least 5 more grey hairs.

It would be nice if somebody could point me to such a doc, as I don't want to trigger some more burried landmines in those clients in the future.

Cheers Alex

Alex, unfortunately Adobe has been a bit lax in the documentation department. The links to the currently available documentation and items in the developer area are shown in the FrameMaker Resources links on the FrameMaker Forum general landing page.

You may wish to express your views to the current FM product manager. His contact info can be found in his Introduction blog at:

Hello Arnis,

good idea to get in contact directly with the PM. I'm having some cumbersome time here getting things right with our old structure (some DITA specialisaton right from hell), which worked only because of the  squishy DITA implementation in FM9. Now in FM11 I'm stumbling over some very strange behaviors of the API clients, that made me give up DITA once and for all.
