Please note:

- The DLL and support files can actually be installed anywhere, provided that 1) all files are in the same folder, and 2) the path to the Structure Tools DLL is properly specified in maker.ini. If you have no need for a special installation and/or do not know what all this means, simply follow the instructions below as written.


To install Structure Tools:

1.  In your FrameMaker installation directory, create a "WestStreet" subfolder. (no quotes or space in the actual folder name). If it already exists, that is OK.

2.  Extract all contents of the ZIP file into that folder, maintaining the internal folder structure. All files should be extracted directly below the WestStreet folder, not within an additional subfolder (except for documentation files).

3.  In your FrameMaker installation directory, find and open maker.ini.
    
    -or-

    Open the maker.ini file in your "user profile" (AppData) area. Recent versions of FrameMaker include a personalized version of maker.ini in the Windows "user profile" area, with a path something like: "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker". You may want to edit this file instead, adding an API Clients section if necessary.

4.  At the bottom of the [APIClients] section, add the following line, according to your version of FM. For example, for FM2015:

	WS_StructureTools=Standard, WS_StructureTools, WestStreet\WS_StructureTools_FM2015.dll, structured

    IMPORTANT! Use the version of the DLL file that matches your version of Framemaker, except as noted below:
    
    For FM2017 or 32-bit FM2019, use the 2015 build as shown above. 
   
    For 64-bit FM2019:

	WS_StructureTools=Standard, WS_StructureTools, WestStreet\WS_StructureTools_FM2019_x64.dll, structured

    For FM2020:

	WS_StructureTools=Standard, WS_StructureTools, WestStreet\WS_StructureTools_FM2020.dll, structured


    For FM2022:

	WS_StructureTools=Standard, WS_StructureTools, WestStreet\WS_StructureTools_FM2022.dll, structured

    For FM2026:

	WS_StructureTools=Standard, WS_StructureTools, WestStreet\WS_StructureTools_FM18.dll, structured


5.  Save and close maker.ini and start (or restart) FrameMaker.  If you receive no errors, the plugin should be active.


Note:  Structure Tools includes a comprehensive User Guide.  For further information on the plugin, please consult that document.
