FrameMaker customization
In addition to FrameMaker’s built-in features, there are several ways to customize default behavior. These range from inexpensive plug-ins to API programming. The FDK enables programmers to make extensive changes to default behavior and to write custom code to work around application limitations. Although the FDK software is free, FDK programming projects are expensive. Where possible, we recommend accommodating FrameMaker’s default behavior to reduce configuration costs.
Two scripting languages, FrameScript and FrameAC, provide easier access to FDK functions. The FDK supports deeper, more complex customizations, but for many requirements, FrameScript or FrameAC provides an inexpensive alternative to FDK programming.
