FrameMaker and 1000D - is this facility still usable?

[FrameMaker-dk]

I have some clients asking about FrameMaker and S1000D. I am no expert on structured FrameMaker and have done some research into what can be done using FrameMaker as a S1000D editor. 

I do worry that all information regarding this subject looks very dated. FrameMaker version 10 and not a lot of consultants...  

Does anybody here have up-to-date knowledge about using FrameMaker as a S1000 editor?

Hi,

Yes, it's feasible but not with Framemaker's own S1000D support. I would strongly recommend using Mekon's S1000D plugin (which even Adobe recommends on the Help menu).

See my earlier replies here:

And make sure that the MOI is registered at NATO NSPA, either by you or by your customer.

Thank you! Very generous of you. I need to get a better grip on the clients needs, but I might absolutely take you up on your offer.

Hi Bjorn,

Mekon used to have a FrameMaker plug-in for S1000D.

Mekon is now part of contiem.

Here is a page about their FrameMaker plug-ins:

And here is page about the configuration of Adobe Experience Manager AEM:

Does this help?

Thanks for your quick answer, @Winfried Reng ! These are "different times" and I struggle figuring out to what extent users are able to keep the entire publishing process on local servers.  Besides the FrameMaker stuff. 🙂
