the only thing I've found that is just FM 9. (I know about Icon Logic's TCS

Has anyone used the Classroom in a Book for FM 9? I just requested a review
copy, but I'm not

Scriptorium has a FrameMaker 8 book that we bought when we were still
considering the move to FrameMaker. By the time a decision was made, FM 9 was
out. However, the book is still very useful as the differences between 8 and 9

The Classroom in a Book for FM 9 is useless - speaking from personal

gladly buy it!

We at Front Runner highly recommend Scriptorium's Publishing Fundamentals:
Unstructured FrameMaker 8. This is the book we provide our students as a
reference book for our FrameMaker training.
