The Adobe FrameMaker 7.1: Advanced study guide builds on the concepts and techniques you learned in FrameMaker 7.1: Intermediate. In this course, you will work with structured FrameMaker documents. You'll use a structured template to create documents and then you will view, add, wrap, and import other elements. You will also manipulate elements using techniques such as replace, merge, move, copy, and delete. In addition, you will learn how to use structured tables and cross-references. We'll teach you how to resolve cross-references, how to insert system and user variables, and how to create and apply conditional tags.

Your final task when using the Adobe FrameMaker 7.1: Advanced study guide is to create a book file with structured documents including creating hypertext links and saving your FrameMaker publication in HTML and PDF.

Our FrameMaker computer training books teach you the skills you need to effectively use this software. The Adobe FrameMaker 7.1: Advanced courseware takes your skills to the advanced level so that you can take advantage of all of the features of FrameMaker.

Each main topic is included in a unit all its own with section reviews and exercises designed to give you the know-how you need in order to master this program.
