All, I have a colleague who is being told that Framemaker is to go bye-bye very soon and that she will be needing to use Rational SODA to develop her documentation. I have googled this tool (as has she) and if they (as in her powers-that-be) want a developer who likes to write, then this would

You're taking the hard route. ;-) Make sure in FM that you are using a custom paragraph style (like Code) with tab stops, and control indentation in FM with tabs. Then in WWP map your FM Code paragraph to Preformatted and you're good to go. The output should then appear wrapped in pre/pre tags,

Adobe's Frame/DITA update

Hunh? As far as I can tell, Rational SoDA is a tool for *managing* the *internal* documentation associated with projects. Nothing on the web page suggests that you can write user-oriented documentation with it. If nobody from the IBM tech pubs area responds, I can get some colleagues from there to

The Asian language docs are copied from the CD to your \OnlineManuals directory (C:\Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker7.2\OnlineManuals, for example). If you do have any Asian fonts installed, they should be registered and show up in your Windows Character Map tool. And should be able to be inserted
