Re: [Framers] Old FrameMaker books?

2017-10-05 Thread Phillip Norman
I have a box of FrameMaker v5 from Frame technology. I loaded the program
in Windows 7 Professional, and of course learned nothing of program
workings, where I am peculiarly using the graphics palette. From the
beginning when v5.5.6 was new, I have been happy with merger of 2D graphics
of some complexity and great precision, with text documents such as
Purchase Orders. As this peculiar user, happy with v5.5.6, I am only
unhappy to be constrained to 32-bit computing.

I have talked to The List three times I think, in all those years of caring
about FrameMaker and skimming understandable things occasionally from
others. Where I talk to The List, it is always about this graphics suite,
and the fit to my brains in flexible document creation, despising automated
cookie-cutter Word and its predecessors that evolved from command language.
I know a few keystroke operations, but it is mostly type and place precise,
flexible simplicity.

I have tried to share samples of my work,hoping not all modern users are
publishing professionals. I show the often creation of house details in my
work as a construction contractor, on an accurately sized satellite photo.
I imagine large employment opportunities for people I call Diligence
Reporters, doing third-part quality control in construction, photos and
builder notes proving completion of check list requirements, then in many
ways surpassing "work" done by municipal jurisdictional authorities. I am
inspired by a customer-couple who worked as entertainers on cruise ships,
and would be happy in this Reporter relationship with respected builders,
working in The Cloud to escape boredom in the Indian Ocean. I want a
simplified and inexpensive software going back to the roots of FrameMaker,
perhaps written by those Old Guys, and not owned by Adobe. Millions have a
chance to do their correspondence in something not Word-like, much better.
The Reporters in-the-cloud, would find this flexible software more
intuitive than today's FrameMaker.

Can anyone help?

So, my v5 Frame Technology books are still shrink wrapped. Would I do well
to open and read them? Is the pristine box valuable?

And more complex terms as well. Try to find "how to add a sound clip" when a
writer wrote about "Inserting audio files" either because a developer/mgr
uses that term, or the company insists on using the actual menu names for
every single title and never considers that the audience may type
information in another fashion. Robert makes an excellent point.

2017-10-02 Thread Scott Prentice
That could *almost* be a viable option if indexes had been replaced with 
decent linguistic search engines. But most search engines out there are 
absolute crap. The removal of indexes was purely a cost saving move and 
nothing about providing usable documentation.


A good index provided a huge benefit to both doc developer and the end 
user. But now, I suppose people are "lucky" to get any documentation at 
all. Set your sights low, and that's where it all ends up.

Generating an index is also a great way to spot inconsistencies in
terminology and usage, especially on docs written by a team.
And it enables the write to flag which mentions of a common term are
useful; search shows every mention.

Hmmm. There's a debate to be had here. I'm with your former co-worker. A dumb 
search is not the same as an index, always assuming that the index has been 
done properly - i.e. there's been a sentient human in the loop.

A parallel is the lazy 'search' feature that is built into the web interfaces 
of web fora such as tech support sites for Microsoft and the like. Who has the 
time to wade through 847 hits to find the possible one relevant one? Or work 
out what the search grammar is, always assuming that there is one? I have for 
example totally given up trying to fox out technical issues with Parallels 
products for just this reason. Such things can actually drive customers away, 
and the opposite can hold true too.

And what Monique said too - she beat me to it.

Well, sure. If I know the exact word to look for, ^F will find it. But what

Scott,You might want to hang onto that 5.5 book. Once Adobe started creating 
the documentation the Index started going downhill, when compared to the 
original Frame issued books. The original Index was actual usefulI wouldn't 
part with mine unless I had to.

I hate to pitch (recycle) this stuff if it's of any use to anyone.

User Guides for FM 7.0, FM 6.0, FM+SGML 6.0, and FM 5.5. All basically 
new and some still in plastic.

[Framers] Old FrameMaker books?

2017-10-02 Thread Scott Prentice

Hi...

I hate to pitch (recycle) this stuff if it's of any use to anyone.

User Guides for FM 7.0, FM 6.0, FM+SGML 6.0, and FM 5.5. All basically 
new and some still in plastic.


Contact me off list if you'd like any or all of these.

Cheers,
