XML Editing Modes in FrameMaker

Q

What are XML editing view modes in FrameMaker?

✍: FYIcenter.com

A

FrameMaker has three view modes that help you to edit your XML files:

1. XML View - Allows you to work with the plain XML code of your XML files. XML view is easier to use if you know well XML specifications.

2. Author View - Simplifies structured authoring by keeping out unstructured FrameMaker features and features not relevant for XML authors, such as page numbers.

3. WYSIWYG View - Displays page breaks, headers and footers, all keyboard shortcuts, and all menus.

Icons to switch from one view to another view are located in the menu bar:
