12.6 Primary paragraph rules

A paragraph rule specifies how the text of FrameMaker paragraphs, identified by their paragraph tag, is to be converted to HTML constructs.

The syntax of primary paragraph rules is:

PARAGRAPH "FMparatag" TYPE type 
{
  specification of attributes 
  ACTIONS {
            statement of conversion action 
          }
}

where:

"FMparatag"

is the tag name of the FrameMaker paragraph tag. Because FrameMaker paragraph tags are case-sensitive, this name must match the case of the paragraph tag.

type

may be either Heading, List, or Normal.

specification of attributes

Assignment of values to various attributes, depending on type.

statement of conversion action

Any combination of calls to WML functions to perform the desired conversion action.
