apply styles (tags) and modify them as necessary
use existing styles (tags) to format text so that it looks exactly like a PDF document (developed originally in FrameMaker)
create comon types of tables

document a simple computer hardware or software task using FrameMaker styles (tags) that you have designed
create various styles of cross-references—both within the same document and between documents
automate any numbering stream in a FrameMaker book; enable versions of the same documents, and create variables for rapid updating
use reference pages to store frequently used graphics that must be positioned consistently throughout a document, to hold boilerplate material or clip art that you can copy and paste on body pages (for example, symbols for cautions and notes), and to maintain hypertext commands, formatting information for generated lists and indexes.
"build" books using FrameMaker: bring multiple documents into a book structure and automate tables of contents, cross-references, indexes, and numbering streams

You use links, videos and transcripts of those videos to learn these tasks, e-mail your instructor when you have questions, and send your work to the instructor for review.
