From: Framers <framers-bounces+julie.sigrist=airbornemx....@lists.frameusers.com> On Behalf Of Tammy Van Boening Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2023 12:51 PM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. <framers@lists.frameusers.com> Subject: Re: [Framers] Regarding "Converting a frame maker document to a word document" Update: Sooooooooooooo, I demonstrated to my client how/why I was using Framemaker versus Word and explained to them that they would be going down the same hellacious road that they hired me to rescue them from in the first place if they went back to Word and I also emphasized the exorbitant cost in having me convert everything to Word and miracles upon miracles, here is their response verbatim: " We have decided to skill up with framemaker, so no worries about the word versions." Score one for the gipper!!! I promised to leave them a very clean point and click template and provide a video of how to switch back and forth between the two conditions (SPG and Equations) which represent the two different guides!!! Now, I am going to drink heavily but this time to celebrate!!! Happy Holidays everyone!!
