A BOOK file may also be a book created by FrameMaker, a program used to generate books and other large documents. It stores references to FrameMaker documents ( .FM and .MIF files), which can contain chapters, appendixes, table of contents, and other books. FrameMaker allows users to compile a book from smaller document subparts.
