16.4.7 Including placeholders for additional bookmap elements
You can include placeholders for DITA elements that are not being converted from FrameMaker, but instead will be produced when the bookmap is rendered for presentation; for example, a glossary or an index.
Items you can use for placeholders include roles Front, Back, and Lists, and any of the components in Table 16-3. However, you cannot assign roles Part, Chapter, or Appendix, or a Seg directive.
To position a placeholder in the bookmap:
• In [DITABookmapFiles], assign property ElementBefore or ElementAfter to the file the placeholder should precede or follow.
• In [BookmapElementBefore] or [BookmapElementAfter], assign the desired placeholder component to the file.
For example, to specify that one or more DITA elements should precede the preface for the Mif2Go User's Guide, FrameMaker file about.fm:
about = Front Preface ElementBefore
To list components for the DITA elements to precede the preface:
about = Front Lists TOC LOF LOT
And to specify that three different indexes should follow the last appendix file, m2cmod.fm:
m2cmod = Appendix ElementAfter
m2cmod = Back Lists IX1 IX2 IX3
Each component you assign creates an element in the bookmap. Table 16-3 shows the name of the element inserted for each component.
