9.3.2 Recommended technique for paragraph rules

When you convert a FrameMaker document to HTML, you want to specify how each paragraph in your FrameMaker document should appear in HTML. To do this, you need to have a paragraph rule with the same name as each paragraph tag in your FrameMaker document.

The easiest way to create paragraph rules that correspond to the paragraph tags is to have RapidRules create a WML file for your document. The resulting WML relies exclusively on WML library files for its mappings, which means that every paragraph rule is a uses rule.

The two paragraph rules in Section 9.3.1, "Categories of paragraph rules: primary and uses" are examples of this technique. The primary paragraph rule L1BulletItem is defined in the library file lists.wml. The uses rule Bullet is defined in a WML file created by RapidRules. The Bullet paragraph tag exists in the FrameMaker document.
