4.8.1 Converting FrameMaker TOC and IX files

When you are converting a FrameMaker book, you can choose whether to include FrameMaker-generated contents and index files in the process:

[FDK]

; UseFrameTOC = Yes (default, except for Help formats and DITA),

;  or No (default for Help formats and DITA)

UseFrameTOC=Yes

; UseFrameIX = Yes (default, except for Help formats and DITA),

;  or No (default for Help formats and DITA)

UseFrameIX=Yes

The default value is the same for both UseFrameTOC and UseFrameIX, and depends on the output format you specify: 

Output format	Default
Print RTF (Word, WordPerfect)	Yes
WinHelp	No
Standard HTML	Yes
DITA	No
EclipseHelp	No
JavaHelp	No
MS HTML Help	No
OmniHelp	No
Oracle Help for Java	No
XHTML	Yes
XML	Yes
MIF only	Yes
ASCII DCL only	Yes

If you are creating a Help system, you should not need either TOC or IX; by default, Mif2Go generates contents and index for Help systems. See §6.3.2 Including FrameMaker TOC and IX in Help systems.

To make sure TOC entries that contain character formatting become active links in their entirety, see §4.12.2 Making an entire paragraph into a hotspot.
