Bill: > sell into the Academic publishing market
And into the commercial publishing non-fiction market! Then publishers can stop using dumb Cindex and Sky Index to produce indexes that don't embed in the source text and have to be done all over again when they (a) publish the illustrated edition, (b) publish the paperback edition, (c) produce a revised edition with new matter, (d) license the publishing or translation rights, or (e) do anything that changes the page breaks and screws the index locator numbers. Using IXgen to edit or translate the index while preserving all index entries no matter how pages break has got to be a plus. Trouble is, the outsourcing and cottage-industry nature of publishing means all those freelance copy-editors, typographers (book designers), and indexers would all have to purchase FrameMaker, whereas EVERYBODY has Quark Express, InDesign, and Word.
