1. A method for displaying a dataset of technical documentation for an item via an interactive electronic technical manual system (IETM) in a source format structure and a converted format structure, the method comprising:
accessing a dataset in a converted format structure, wherein (1) the converted format structure represents the dataset after having been converted from a source format structure to the converted format structure, (2) the converted format structure indicates a converted organizational framework for the dataset, and (3) the source format structure indicates a source organizational framework for the dataset, wherein converting the dataset from the source format structure to the converted format structure comprises:
(a) identifying the source format structure for the dataset based at least in part on metadata in the dataset;
(b) assigning a first indicator to a first portion of the dataset in the converted format structure, wherein the first indicator (i) identifies the source format structure and the first portion of the dataset in the converted format structure, (ii) enables display of the first portion of the dataset in the source format structure, and (iii) the first indicator maps the first portion of the dataset to the source format structure;
(c) assigning a second indicator to a second portion of the dataset in the converted format structure, wherein the second indicator (i) identifies the source format structure and the second portion of the dataset in the converted format structure, (ii) enables display of the second portion of the dataset in the source format structure, and (iii) maps the first portion of the dataset to the source format structure;

generating a window based at least in part on the converted format structure, the first indicator, and the second indicator;
providing the window for display via an IETM viewer executing on a user computing entity, wherein the window displays (1) textual information from the dataset in the converted format structure and (2) a plurality of selection mechanisms;
receiving input of a selection mechanism of the plurality of selection mechanisms;
responsive to receiving input of a first type of selection mechanism of the plurality of selection mechanisms, generating a data source window comprising a corresponding section for the textual information of the dataset in the source format structure, wherein the data source window comprises the textual information from the dataset in the source format structure;
responsive to receiving input of a second type of selection mechanism of the plurality of selection mechanisms, generating the data source window comprising an entire dataset in the source format structure, wherein the entire dataset in the source format structure comprises the textual information; and
providing the data source window for display via the IETM viewer.
