Flare's arguably the best alternative to FrameMaker. If your .fm files
are formatted consistently, little or no cleanup may be required after
import.

Affinity Publisher lacks FM- and iD- technical-authoring tools, like
x-refs, hierarchical running H/Fs, multi-file books.
The Serif AP user forum reveals that footnotes were added after being
requested. This stirs optimism that other feature requests will be
fulfilled ... in due time.

If you have the option of porting to a different authoring system for your
source docs, I've long been a fan (and MVP) of WebWorks ePublisher. It's very
flexible and you can create multiple outputs.

After leaving Framemaker (which I worked with for about 20 years!), I
arrived at a company which publishes everything directly to the web using
Document360.
But this doesn't do everything I want, so I am looking into different
options, to publish to the web, create PDF files if required, as well
Caroline, what are you using now to create your source docs?

Someone mentioned Affinity here, so I installed it. It looks like it has a
lot of potential, but It was more than I needed right now so I didn't put
much effort into using it.

Someone said they hesitated to recommend Frame because of recent
installation issues, so told a company to try something else.
Can you tell me what it was?
We need to put our docs online
