17.4.2.1 Assigning DocBook elements to paragraph formats
To map paragraph formats in your document to DocBook elements, assign the element name to the format name:
; Frame paragraph format (wildcards OK) = DocBook element, can be
; overridden by a DocBookTag marker; or Frame format = No.
The default element for a FrameMaker paragraph format that is not mapped in [DocBookParaTags] is one of the following:
• If UseFormatAsTag=Yes and the name of the format matches the name of a DocBook element, the format is mapped to that element.
• If UseFormatAsTag=No or the format name does not match an element name, the format is mapped to the element designated by DefParaElem; see §17.4.2.2 Specifying a default element for unmapped paragraph formats.
Specify ancestry for list formats
For list formats, if mapping the format to an element is not sufficient to identify the list type, you must also specify the parent of the element; see §17.5.2 Designating DocBook ancestor elements. Definition lists can be derived from paragraph pairs, possibly with run-in headings for the term.
To specify that a particular FrameMaker paragraph format should not be mapped to any element:
The value No means that the tags for the format should be omitted, leaving the text inside the enclosing element. Use this mapping for code examples (which can run on for pages), to avoid having each line of code mapped to a separate <codeblock> element. For example:
Specifying ancestry guarantees that Mif2Go will retain the original line breaks, instead of normalizing them as for HTML or XML.
