| Overview: This three-day course teaches participants to automate tasks using FrameScript in FrameMaker.
FrameScript only requires the knowledge of its own scripting language.
Commands are simplified with multiple options and easy to configure defaults for almost everything.
While a programming background is beneficial, it is not strictly required to learn FrameScript.
