<snip> After hearing of similar issues for documentation service providers and discussions with representatives of Adobe Germany the following solution was found: You have to buy the current version of FrameMaker but NOT as a box product but rather through the Adobe TLP licensing program http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/volumelicensing/ Next, via Adobe Customer Service you should be able to downgrade the license, i.e. they provide you with a serial number. You have to get the original installer yourself, but this should not be a problem. In April 2009 I summarized this in a blog post (German only) and some people reported that they had success. It may be worthwhile if you check with Adobe Customer Service first. http://cap-studio.de/wp/index.php/2009/04/aeltere-framemaker-lizenzen-erwerben/ - Michael </excerpt> Google translation does a pretty fair job on that last link. -- ============ Steve Johnson, dr_gonzo at pobox.com
