Hi together,
I want to do the following workflow for our documantation.
We have to send a complete documentation for each product we sell.
Every product has its own serial number, this numer is on Title sheet, and also in the footer of every page.
The only Output I will need is a pdf File.
I am new to the documentation and also to framemaker. So I am thinking about DITA,...
Some of the parts will be also in use for different Products.
This is the reason, why I am thinking about DITA, Structured Fm Documents,...
Can you give me some feedback or ideas?
My primary issue is to load the external pdf via serialnumer (serialnumber will be a variable)
Ist there a option to automated output, so I can Say please generate Documentaion for each of the following 20 Serialnumbers?
Thank you in advance.

"I am new to the documentation and also to framemaker. So I am thinking about DITA,." - WOW - unless you already know how DITA operates, I wouldn't suggest going down that road unless you can justify the investment. I suggest you find a consultant to look at what you're creating (or needing to create) and give you a recommendation.
