Hi all,
I have a colleague who may want to make the jump into DITA. I am old school
with unstructured FrameMaker but I know there's plenty out there but I'd
like to get recommendations from you all. I am looking for FrameMaker
plugins for 1) converting unstructured framemaker 9 files into DITA

Very cool article!
I started using FrameMaker on a monochrome Sun 3/50 back in 1988 and loved it!
Our engineering team chose it over Interleaf (which is what the tech pubs folks
were using), because of the slightly lower cost and the fact that it was a
cleaner fit with Sun's windowing

Heck! I feel like just a kid. We started with Frame 3 (I think) on the
PC in the early-mid 90s.

Hi All...
Not necessarily FrameMaker, but obliquely related...
I just posted a little Java app that helps create alias files and redirect
files when making a merged CHM RoboHelp project. If you have tried doing this,
then you know what I mean. It's got a GUI, and it creates the content

Oh, yes, Interleaf was definitely a good product at the time.
For us, it was just:
(a) the cost was much higher ... as I recall, Interleaf did not have a
floating license concept, only fixed per-system licenses,
(b) had more features than we really needed in our Engineering team
Has anyone experienced a problem with bullets appearing from a PDF? We are not
seeing the problem with all documents and it does not occur on every machine
with FrameMaker installed. We already verified that the Zapf Dingbats font is
installed on the user's machine. This problem is only
Hi Andy
With respect, I don't think the two problems that you listed are problems at
all if you use consistent chapter/section/topic structure. Predictable
structure is a Good Thing anyway, and even without using structured Frame it it
a good idea to have well-defined structures for different
Clarification to previous posting. Has anyone experienced a problem with
bullets disappearing from a PDF? They are all visible in FrameMaker, but
disappear when the PDF is generated. It does not occur with all users and only
occurs with large documents.
I learned Frame on a Unix system about that same time, Don, in North Carolina's
Triangle area--and I learned it from the best editor I've ever come across. You
might know her as Sarah O'Keefe. :)

Yes, this is undoubtedly an excellent article. I began my Framemaker journey
with 7.0 release, about five years back. Everyone around me used to say that
Framemaker has got steep learning curve. I was kind of scared when I opened it
for first time. I could only type and was not able to do any
