Hi all,
I have used FrameMaker for over 5 years. I have used it to produce
thousands of pages of documentation. And I honestly thought that FM was a
great tool...for a time. Plus, the community was super helpful.
So its with some regret that I am telling you that I am leaving this
community and
Hi, Joseph.
You are not the only one who is abandoning FrameMaker ... if you look at my
posts in the past months, I have done the same although I have been using it
since 1988 off and on. I am still on the list for old times sake, though. :)
Please do send me your detailed reasons in an

Interestingly, Syed's comments mirror my own trajectory but I have been
using LaTeX et al for as long as I have been using FrameMaker.
I doubt I will be moving past version 10 unless my clients continue to

In my office, we are upgrading from Structured FrameMaker 8 in Win XP to
Structured FrameMaker 11 in Win 7. Part of the work that I do involves
importing xml feeds into Structured FrameMaker templates using an automated
process. As I am testing the importing into FM 11 I am noticing that the

this is a fan club, I think a lot of FM users are looking for a
practical migration path. It would be interesting to hear a current
comparison of the two.

If you are one of our colleagues who runs FrameMaker on a Mac with a
Windows VM in VirtualBox, you should know that an upgrade to OSX Mavericks
might not go well. Our field guys have had no end of trouble with the
upgrade.
Here's what seems to work for them:
After MANY attempts, the way to go is:
Thanks John,
I do. Actually, Windows is on Bootcamp but run through VB.
Have any users run VB on a fresh install (as opposed to the upgrade)? I
won't be upgrading this year. I have important applications that would
be broken by Mavericks and need to wait for the upgrades of those to be
Hi...
I've set up a very short little survey that asks questions about your
use of PDFs. This is really just a way for me to get an idea of what
people are really doing with PDFs. I'll post the results of the survey
when I close it .. probably sometime in December.
Joseph, I would be grateful to be included in your explanation list.
To the LaTex advocates: What version/product/learning tools and resources have
you found most useful? I'm not at all interested in
going back to some coding-oriented environment.
It occurs to me that leaving FrameMaker cuts

There are plenty of alternatives even with FM, as long as you use Print
