15.2.6 Ensuring FrameMaker 8 import compatibility

If you are using FrameMaker version 8, and you expect to use maps or to round-trip your DITA output, specify the following option:

[DITAOptions]

; FM8Import = No (default) or Yes (restrict output for compatibility

;  with FrameMaker Version 8 DITA import and map usage).

FM8Import = Yes

You do not need this setting if you are using the Leximation DITA-FMx plug-in with FrameMaker version 8; see:

http://www.leximation.com/dita-fmx/

When FM8Import=Yes, Mif2Go changes default values for the following settings: 

[DITAOptions] keyword	FM8Import default	Consequence	Ref.
DITAVer	0	Output is restricted to DITA version 1.0 features	15.2.3
MapTopicID	No	Topic IDs are omitted from map references	16.2.1.7
MapTopicmeta	No	The <topicmeta> element is excluded from maps	16.2.1.8
WrapTopicFiles	Yes	Each topic file is wrapped in a <dita> element	15.8.5
UsePtSuffix	Yes	Image width and height attributes are in points	15.7.7
