FrameMaker 7.2 DITA support is "Based on a core plugin developed and maintained by Leximation" (quoted from the DITA > About window). In fact, my FrameMaker console tells me that the beta period for this component has expired, and that I should contact Leximation for an update (even though it was downloaded from Adobe). FrameMaker 7.x "Apply Master Pages" is also based on a plug-in. David Eason wrote: (in response to Hedley) > You named several indexing tools. I have been very comfortable with > Index Tools Pro.
