Hello Art,
Mandarin Chinese is the single most widely spoken first language, at
873 million speakers, according to the 2007 World Almanac. If you're
targeting China itself, you would translate into Simplified Chinese, a

Thank you for posting the link; I enjoyed the Blog. It is comforting to
see Aseem Dokania's statement online that FrameMaker is here to stay.
I know that the original posting was about Frame's future, but I
wanted to make these comments about Frame's past, which has so much to
do with why

I'm surprised that you of all people should associate functionality
with presentation. It's a bit similar to separating format from
content. 8^) And I'm surprised that you equate indexes only with
hardcopy.

Since my post about plugins diverted this thread from its original topic
onto a discussion of the merits of plugins, may I amplify my remarks?

I subscribe to this group to expose myself to frame since I don't use it.
The reason I leave the auto daylight feature turned off is because with
