As one of the writers who wrote the documentation for that generation of FM (Chris Despopoulos was part of that crew), I recall that most of the documentation was included on the delivery media (for NeXT, that would have been a CD). Unfortunately, I don't have (that I know of), a copy any more. As Robert Lauriston notes, that documentation should be in the FrameMaker directories (under "Manuals", as I recall).

Good luck!

I wrote software reviews for Nextworld back in those days, and I don't
recall any printed documentation. The documentation for the operating
system, FrameMaker, etc. was all on disk. If you rummage around in the
FrameMaker directories, you should find it somewhere.

Next's own docs are online: http://www.nextcomputers.org/NeXTfiles/Docs/

NextStep is still in development. The latest release is MacOS 10.15.

Dear friends
I got the following mail (see the original at the end):

My name is Dr Ralf Alexander Kohler and by chance I visited your website.
Although, technically, it wasn't a coincidence at all, because I was searching
the Internet for documentation for FrameMaker 3.2  20 years ago I bought a
NextStation with Framemaker 3.2 installed. The plan at the time was to use it to
write my dissertation. Unfortunately, the computer broke down and I had to
switch to Linux/Latex. But now I have succeeded to build a Next computer
emulation with the exact working environment I had back then. While it's not
more than just a gimmick, I still would like to continue using FrameMaker. Now
my question: Do you happen to know if there is any documentation for NextStation
at all? And if so, how can I get it? I only found documentation for FM version
5.0 on the net, but not anything to Next Computer. I would be very interested in
your answer.
