I wanted to share that Stefan Gentz posted a well-informed summary of the issues in the Adobe FrameMaker Support Community — https://community.adobe.com/t5/framemaker-discussions/any-success-running-tcs-framemaker-on-m1-mac/m-p/12529673#M72848
Summary (my own): Running FrameMaker on M1 Macs will be “challenging” for at least the near-future, thanks to issues present from both Microsoft and Apple. For now, you will probably want to maintain Intel-based hardware to run FrameMaker. I think the x64->ARM architecture shift is huge, and positive, for both vendors, so I somewhat expect these bumps. -Alan -- Alan Houser Group Wellesley, Inc.
