FYI: I am currently using FrameMaker 12 to do a structured project for a client. FrameMaker 12 is certainly capable of working with structured documents.

The ONLY reason I'm still sticking with Frame12 is because I have no need for structured documents and there haven't been enough non-structure improvements since FM12 to justify the cost of upgrading. Yes, some would-be-nice-to-haves, but nothing worth the price. The strength of FM is that I can still make it jump through serious advanced-level hoops despite its age. It just may take a bit longer. Same thing applies to me, too. Carol At 04:29 PM 1/15/2020, Mike Wickham wrote: >New versions of FrameMaker always seem to concentrate on adding >features for the structured community. I get it.
