I'm pretty sure FrameMaker 3.0 will work only with legacy fonts.
If you like NextStep, you ought to like OS X / MacOS. It's a direct
descendant and quite recognizable as such. Lots of scorewriter / music
notation software.
My main problem with NextStep is that I had to use the mouse for
Dear List,
Klaus Daube was so friendly to pass on my question. So far I am very grateful
for the feedback. It helped me formulate my question more concisely: I am
looking for the two tutorials “Learning FrameMaker” and “Using FrameMaker”.
Both have been published by
Frame Technology in 1989.
There was an external SCSI CD-ROM drive later on.

As one of the writers who wrote the documentation for that generation of
FM (Chris Despopoulos was part of that crew), I recall that most of the
documentation was included on the delivery media (for NeXT, that would
have been a CD). Unfortunately, I don't have (that I know of), a copy

I wrote software reviews for Nextworld back in those days, and I don't
recall any printed documentation. The documentation for the operating
system, FrameMaker, etc. was all on disk. If you rummage around in the
FrameMaker directories, you should find it somewhere.
Next's own docs are online:
There is a copy of FM4 Windows (sealed in the box) on ebay for $15.99 (or best

Also, there is a copy of The Frame Handbook by Linda Branagan (circa 1994) for
