By using the pod2* programs provided with Perl 5, SDF can generate man pages, LaTeX files, PostScript and a few other formats. By using FrameMaker, SDF can indirectly generate PostScript, FrameViewer, RTF and other formats which FrameMaker can export. On Unix, most of these can be generated using FrameMaker’s batch utility (fmbatch). On other platforms, it is necessary to generate a MIF file, open it in FrameMaker and print, save or export to the required format. By using SGML-Tools 1.02 or later, SDF can indirectly generate LaTeX, RTF, GNU Info and LyX formats. If LaTeX is also installed, SDF can indirectly generate PostScript and DVI.
