You can add ‘text insets’ into Adobe FrameMaker if you want to reuse content. You can import a document into another document as a reference and update the content when the source document changes.
The Adobe Tech Comms blog highlight that you can also use text insets in EDD, enabling you to re-use context level formatting rules and elements across elements and structured applications.
Here is how it’s done.
- Copy the re-usable component from an existing EDD
- Go to reference pages
- Insert a text frame
- Paste the element definition in the new text frame
- Add a tag to text frame
- Come back to Body Pages
- Select the element and delete it
- Import the element definition from the same EDD. Please select reference flow and tag name of the text frame to identify the content.
Bingo! You have created a re-usable element definition.
