### 15.1.4 Converting from structured vs. unstructured FrameMaker

You do not have to use structured FrameMaker to produce DITA XML with Mif2Go. You can use structured FrameMaker, provided your EDD specifies distinct formats for the elements, rather than the Word-style formatting some structured-FrameMaker users prefer. Whether you use structured or unstructured FrameMaker, to produce completely valid DITA output, the content of your FrameMaker document must be arranged to fit the DITA architecture.

To use structured FrameMaker as a DITA authoring tool, you need DITA-FMx:

This is true even if you are using FrameMaker version 9, which supports DITA 1.1.
