Isabelle,
I think there was a comparative study initiated by Diane Gaskill two weeks

Hi Framers,
I've got the following problem: I create a spreadsheet in Excel 2007,
copy a couple of cells and paste them as OLE2 object in my Frame 7.2 file.
I create a PDF and, lo and behold, a black rectangle appears on top of
the OLE2 object. I'm using Acrobat 6 with Dov's recommended
Hi,
I would recommend that you look specifically at the XML support in
FrameMaker if XML is an option to you.
There are many other considerations in using FrameMaker ... here's just a
few
1. If you plan to migrate your Interleaf documents into structured XML, you
can make you of the conversion
You've got a point there, Mark (or rather, several points ;-)).
And once you've got your Interleaf content in FrameMaker, the latest
version of MIFGo can help to make DITA topics and maps directly from
UNstructured FrameMaker files (I've been told). You can download a free
unlimited demo
Hi,
Is there a tool which works book wide for removing legacy conditional
text settings?
Thanks in advance

Unfortunately not using structured but considering it.
Following the discussions but a long way off from making progress in
that area.
Anyway, thanks good to know for future reference.

Hi, all!
We are working on setting up our structures for training material, in
which two of the deliverables are a student guide and the associated
instructor guide. Although we are working in structured Frame, I don't
think my questions are necessarily influenced by that.

Is the Instructor's Guide a totally separate book, or you have one
book that you're publishing in two versions, maybe controlled by
conditional text?

When I left Frame Tech in 1994, internal metrics and intelligent speculation
put the total number of worldwide licenses at around 300K. With Wanock's
listing of 500K 5 years later, you could assume liberal growth of 40,000
licenses per year which would put the probable current figure
The plan is to have one book in two versions with conditional text.
Unless we come up with a much better idea. We are just about to start
writing it.

Diane,
A friend forwarded an article to me with more substantial and credible
statistics. Econtent magazine ran an article June of last year which quoted
800,000 FrameMaker users and 50,000 Arbortext Users. (Ironically, my liberal

I have started using text insets to share content between different

these.
Some of the content items are one or two paragraphs long but some are
