Introduction to FrameMaker 9 focuses on the core features of document publishing with FrameMaker, including:

Working with FrameMaker Documents
A quick overview of the FrameMaker interface.

Defining Paragraph Formats
Create a document from scratch and learn how to define Paragraph formats with the Paragraph Designer.

Defining Color and Character Formats
Learn how to add color and inline formatting with the Character Designer.

Page Layout

Graphics
Add imported images and FrameMaker-drawn graphics to your chapter headers and footers.

Document Editing
Explore user variables, spell-check, thesaurus, extended characters, and more .

Tables
Easily one of the most powerful features of FrameMaker: learn to define table formats with Table Designer to quickly and accurately format multiple tables

A copy of the course book and the data files will be sent to you prior to the start of the class.
