DESCRIPTION
The Adobe FrameMaker Template Series is a collection of over 150 
professionally designed templates. Using the templates, you can create 
technical manuals, cookbooks, Web sites, and many other types of 
publications entirely in FrameMaker. We've also thrown in over 30 custom 
table formats; multi-purpose borders; and special features, such as guide 
lines, pre-built fractions, customizable variables, and tables of contents.

This pack includes nine templates:
 
BkStyle1: This template family is designed to keep page count down.
 
BkStyle2: This family features prominent headings and generous amounts of 
white space without increasing page count.
 
BkStyle3: This template family creates a book with its chapters, 
appendices, illustrations, etc., numbered independently. This feature 
makes it easy for material to be inserted later without disrupting the 
numbering scheme throughout the entire book.
 
BkStyle4: This complex template family is ideal for laser-printed software 
manuals, training guides, tutorials, and in-house instructional material. 
It features a wealth of formats, accent graphics, and more that help the 
student progress quickly and stay focused on the material.
 
BkStyle5: This family is the same as BkStyle2, but this version shows how 
to create running thumb tabs on recto pages. You can easily copy the 
technique to other templates after you see how it's done here.
 
BkStyle6: This template is intended for the small heavily illustrated 
manuals that accompany TVs, VCRs, and similar consumer hardware. The 
template exports well to HTML because of the way text and graphics are 
enclosed. It's a great way to transfer printed, graphical step-by-step 
guides to the Web.
 
BkStyle7: Did you like the pre-5.5 FrameMaker documentation? This template 
family brings that look back to life in a special, easier-to-use version.
 
BkStyle8: This template family served as the basis for the Adobe 
FrameMaker Template Series documentation.
 
BkIntl: This simple template is meant for instruction sheets or 
step-by-step guides where the contents must be in three languages.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Adobe FrameMaker 5.5 or later for Mac OS or Adobe FrameMaker+SGML 5.5 or 
later for Mac OS

All the templates work equally in either FrameMaker product. If you're 
using FrameMaker+SGML, you can use these templates for unstructured 
documents; none of the templates provide element definitions. If you only 
have an earlier version of FrameMaker and still want to use one of the 
templates, ask a friend to save the template in MIF and then open and 
resave the file in the earlier version. (Any 5.5-specific formatting will 
be lost in the conversion.)

HANDLING NOTES
After downloading a ".sit.hqx" or ".sit" file on a Macintosh, use StuffIt 
Deluxe(R) or StuffIt Expander(R) by Aladdin Systems, Inc. (408-761-6200, 
http://www.aladdinsys.com/) to access the file's contents.  StuffIt 
Expander is available as a freeware product.

INSTALLATION NOTES
The most convenient place to install the template files is in the folder 
that contains the standard FrameMaker templates. By placing them in this 
location, they will be available in FrameMaker's New dialog box. If you 
prefer to place them in a different folder, you may have to navigate to 
that folder to find them when you create a new document.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
Most of the templates contain sample text and instructions. These 
instructions are helpful when you're using the templates for the first 
time. After a while, however, you'll probably want to clear out the sample 
text from the templates you use regularly. If you do this, be sure to keep 
a copy of the filled-in template in case you need to be reminded of how 
it's supposed to look or work.
