Question

Saving Chapters of FM Document in HTML

Is there a way to save the chapters of a FrameMaker document as separate HTML files so that the cross-reference links between them work? If I save each chapter separately in HTML format, the links between them are broken. Thank you.

    Have you looked at Publishing the book as Responsive HTML5 topic files?

    @Jeff_Coatsworth : There is no such thing as Responsive HTML5 in FM-12... In FM-12 we had only plain HTML output using the various HTML reference pages...

    Whoops - thinking of newer versions there. I actually am still using FM12 and creating HTML5, but it's via the FM to RH import route. I think WebHelp and CHM are the only Publish options in FM12, IIRC.

    What version of FM? That could be important too for your options.

    Are your documents structured (XML) or unstructured?
