I have two PDFs: One comparing InDesign CS4, FrameMaker 9, and QuarkXPress 8 <http://www.ideastraining.com/PDFs/SelectingDTPprogram_v2.pdf>
The older one comparing InDesign CS3, FrameMaker 8, and QuarkXPress 7 <http://www.ideastraining.com/PDFs/SelectingDTPprogram.pdf> What program one chooses greatly depends on the type of projects one will work on. If one is working on a large variety of projects--such as books, newsletters, brochures, and proposals--I would look hard at InDesign. If strictly working with larger book-type projects, one has to look at the features of each program vs. what is needed (such as typographic quality or column-spanning heads). Another thing to look at is the equipment one has; typically InDesign requires more computing power and RAM to run smoothly compared to FrameMaker.
