Just a few minor corrections/amplifications: 5.0 was the last release from Frame Technology. 5.1 (which I think may have officially been 5.1.2) was the first release from Adobe. 5.6 is an incorrect number. The version was actually numbered 5.5.6. There was indeed a 7.1 version between 7.0 and 7.2.

The Windows versions that I used/upgraded-to were (early numbering may be incorrect, but everything after 7.0 is correct): 5.0, 5.5, 5.6, 6.0, 7.0, 7.2, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, and 11.0 With a varying number of available patches for each. Also, I am not counting the older versions I used on Sun systems way back when ? started with either 2.X or 3.0 from Frame Technology back in 1988! :) Z From: framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Courlis Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2012 6:13 AM To: Shelly Schneider; framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Re: Buying an old copy of FrameMaker Shelly Schneider is (potentially) looking for a copy of Frame Maker 8.2. Which brings to mind an interesting question. Does anyone know of the distribution of F M'er (versions) in use? That is, some earlier versions of F M'er are still in use in a production environment and too what extent are these earlier versions used (???) Anyone have a "best guess" or some data ? T I A peter From: Shelly Schneider <[email protected]> To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Sent: Monday, October 1, 2012 10:21 PM Subject: Buying an old copy of FrameMaker An additional contractor has been brought on by my company. If I can find a low-price copy of FrameMaker, perhaps she won?t end up moving her docs to Word (shudder). I know folks on this list swear by FrameMaker 8. FrameMaker 9 was a bug-fest. I doubt I?ll find many people offering FrameMaker 10. I've had no luck on eBay . I?d love to find a copy of FrameMaker 8 with a transferable license (was it 8.2 everyone loved?). Does anybody have any thoughts or caveats on how to go about this? Thanks! Shelly Schneider "It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an airport' appear."
