Structured FrameMaker Translation
Structured FrameMaker offers companies the ability to separate the text data from layout specifications, allowing more consistent and efficient authoring among multiple technical writers working in a collaborative content development environment. The separation of content and layout makes it ideal for subsequent translation and localization because much of the post-translation formatting can be fully automated, saving both time and money. Stepes has expert experience translating Structured FrameMaker with DITA or XML into both mono or bidirectional languages. We also help our clients migrate unstructured FrameMaker documents into structured Frame by creating the base EDD (Element Definition Document) using existing MIF documents.
