17.4.4.2 Providing IDs for block elements

To direct Mif2Go to automatically include an ID attribute in each instance of a block element mapped from a particular FrameMaker paragraph format:

[DocBookParaIDs]

; Frame para format = No (default, no ID set automatically) or Yes

ParaFmt = Yes

When ParaFmt=Yes, Mif2Go includes an ID attribute in the element generated from each paragraph in that format. The default is not to include an ID attribute.

When ParaFmt=No (or when no [DocBookParentIDs] setting is present for ParaFmt), Mif2Go does not include an ID attribute in the elements generated. For an individual element that is the target of a link or cross reference, unless a newlink marker is already present in the FrameMaker paragraph from which the element was generated, you must insert a DocBookElemID marker to provide an ID for the element; see §17.4.4.4 Specifying an ID for an individual block element or parent.

Note:  If you list the same paragraph format in [DocBookParentIDs], Mif2Go changes the value in [DocBookParaIDs] to No; see §17.4.4.3 Providing IDs for interpolated parents of block elements.

You can override the value of an automatically assigned ID attribute with a newlink marker or a DocBookElemID marker inserted in the paragraph in FrameMaker; see §17.4.4.4 Specifying an ID for an individual block element or parent.
