Important Facts about SoDA 2001a.04.00

Read this chapter FIRST if you are upgrading from a previous release of SoDA.


Publishing Tool Requirements

In this release of SoDA, SoDA is no longer bundled with FrameMaker+SGML. An existing release of FrameMaker+SGML is necessary in order to install SoDA. Note that versions of FrameMaker without SGML (for unstructured documents only) are not sufficient, full FrameMaker+SGML is required. When you install SoDA 2001a.04.00, the installation process will prompt you for the location of the installed FrameMaker+ SGML. If you know where FrameMaker+SGML is installed, enter the directory location. If not, enter none. If you enter none, SoDA will not work until you specify a valid directory for a FrameMaker+SGML installation on a host server. Note that users upgrading from SoDA 3.0.1 or later releases may configure SoDA 2001a.04.00 to use the installed version of FrameMaker+SGML bundled with SoDA.

This release of SoDA supports FrameMaker+SGML 5.5 and 6.0.
