Hi, John:
My point was that if the company was using InDesign, it would have to be an
early-enough standalone version that doesn't phone home to Adobe. I use ID
CS6 standalone/non-subscription.
Perhaps the question has evolved to what applications are acceptable on the
corporate network, and which of them do folks on the list think is the best
one to migrate to, so as to avoid having to slog through this effort going
forward?
Despite its age, FrameMaker is still a great tool for the task of technical
writing and publishing. However, security issues in the computing
environments where it's used have become serious considerations, so, to
wit:, hence, therefore, and etc.....

Hi Peter...it's not the process for exporting/converting that's the
issue.
I got all that. I did it all the time to allow my user base to make their
edits.
The issue is installing and licensing the application. It WOULD be
installed on a standalone...mine. It still needs to validate by
connecting
to Adobe, and that's a problem.
BTW...all Adobe products do that, so bring ID into the equation does
nothing.

Subject: Re: [Framers] Compatability with FM11 non-structured files
Looks like my earlier response got truncated. Apologies for any
confusion.
Would it be acceptable to install FM on a stand-alone machine, save as
MIF, and export/convert to formats of apps the corporate network
supports,
then copy these outputs to the network? Or, have that work done by a
service?
If a non-subscription version of InDesign is used on the corporate
network, a round-about approach could be to use the DTP Tools - MIF
Filter
for Adobe InDesign <http://www.dtptools.com/product.asp?id=mfid> to
convert MIF files InDesign. Within InDesign's own limits and abilities,
the
conversion retains most, FrameMaker text formatting features and
specifications, and does its best to emulate page layouts.

Hi, guys...I have 5 years of FM files and my company doesn't like FM
installed on their network.
Are there any other applications that can be installed and open native
FM
11 files and retain most of the FM functionality, especially the book
paradigm?
Thanks
