How many FM users are there?
Hi all, I know Adobe keeps all of their numbers a Big Secret, but I am creating a comparison spreadsheet in my research on FM vs AT and I need to have a general idea of how many FM seats have been installed. FM has been in use since the late 1980s and I would estimate at least 100K seats. If anyone on the list can provide an more accurate number, I'd really appreciate the information. Incidentally, PTC says they have 20K installed seats.

Re: How many FM users are there?
Hi Diane, Adobe should know how many licenses they have _sold_. How many are _using_ FM is a different matter. I guess they are somewhat fewer. I base that assumption on the fact that you can get used FM second hand (including all paperwork). This leads me to assume that a (small?) number of licenses are no longer in use. Also, CDs get lost and Adobe probably do not want to replace a lost CD even if you have all the information about the CD, the invoice etc. At least, I don't know anyone who has tried to get a software company of this size to send a replacement CD. Example from my experience: My IT department lost our copy of Adobe CS1 (which is 50-100% more expensive here than in the US, thanks to the centuries old feudal system these so-called International businesses commonly use -- they sometimes seem not to have heard of the Internet!), but luckily it showed up again nearly a year later. They have lost a lot of other software CDs. Luckily most of those are outdated anyway. I guess not many are using illegal copies of FM. FM is simply not a kind of software that you can use powerfully on your own without a lot of learning and support. Which makes it awkward, to say the least, to use an illegal copy. Start a project to have FM users register as users (anonymous to Adobe, of course, if there should be any people actually trying to use an illegal copy!). However, I guess that this would be a difficult task, and, many, as with our company, are using it only temporarily, being replaced by others etc; which would probably mean that we could only expect a maximum of 1/4-1/2 of the actual users to register. I would guess even fewer. grinSo why not get the guys who write Numbers to come up with a formula to calculate the users. It takes less than an hour on the show! /grin Seats here: 6. Users: 3 (for now).

Re: How many FM users are there?
At the 1999 FrameUsers Conference in Minneapolis, somebody posed this question to Adobe co-founder and then-CEO John Warnock in a public Q/A session. He responded that FrameMaker had about a half-million installed seats worldwide. This information is a bit old, but it is the only public disclosure of FrameMaker's installed base that I have ever encountered. -Alan Diane Gaskill wrote: Hi all, I know Adobe keeps all of their numbers a Big Secret, but I am creating a comparison spreadsheet in my research on FM vs AT and I need to have a general idea of how many FM seats have been installed.

Re: How many FM users are there?
FrameMaker licenses on UNIX can be shared or personal. Users can check out a shared license when they need it, then check it back in when they're done. Depending on demand, the number of users of a single shared license can vary, so it's difficult to be precise. Personal licenses are assigned to an individual login. This can be an individual user, or a login that can be used by more than one user, but the restriction is one logged-in user at a time. Again, this makes a precise estimate difficult to attain. A shared licenses costs about twice the price of a personal licenses.

Re: How many FM users are there?
My guess is that there are some exceptions to this. People who routinely try out software are good at reading online help and figuring out software even more complex (gasp!) than FrameMaker. This is not an endorsement of piracy, but were I Adobe, I might encourage this behavior, because people who become addicted to software, as soon as they're in a business environment which will pay for it, speak up loudly and clearly to request it. That is why Apple was so successful giving computers away at low or no cost to schools, and Microsoft was so successful with their student copies of Microsoft Office (on the path to world domination). --- Bodvar Bjorgvinsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess not many are using illegal copies of FM.

Migrate Problem from WWP 6-Pro to WWP 2003 -Pro (x-posted to wwp-users)
Greetings, I am trying to help a colleague migrate her old WWP6 Pro projects to WWP 2003 Pro, so she can use FM 7 and structured files. When she did the migrate the project, NONE of her 'macros' came across . is there any way to get the project upgraded to WWP 2003, other than copypaste all the macro code? I know that Quadralay is no longer supporting WWP 8, in favor of ePP, but we are not ready to go there, now. Apprec any help!

Re: How many FM users are there?
Hi Bodvar, Given that many FrameMaker users are in the software industry (at least here in Northern California), the number of unused licenses may be higher than you think. For example, as the manager of the Pubs department at Company A, I bought nine licenses for my group. The company was acquired and my entire department was eventually laid off. At Company B, I bought three FrameMaker licenses for my group, only to have the same thing happen again. I'm now at Company C, where I bought yet another copy. I also have the personal copy I bought after one of the layoffs. So of the 14 licenses I've bought in the last 7 years, only two are currently in use. ...Susan Susan Frahm Modlin Lithium Technologies www.lithium.com - Original Message From: Bodvar Bjorgvinsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Diane Gaskill [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: framers@lists.frameusers.com Sent: Wednesday, May 9, 2007 3:20:53 AM Subject: Re: How many FM users are there?
