Okay, I just found in the online help that Pop-up menus don't actually
work in PDFs or in HTML. So that answers THAT question.

Hi, Graeme:
It's been quite a while since I used VPC, but I think that you
probably have installed your applications inside the large file that
represents the complete VPC system.
I seem to recall that I was able to see my Windows applications on the
Mac side, but I'm hazy about how I did that.
So today I received Frame 8 so I installed it on my test machine with
ePub 9.2 to test compatibility. Despite Quadralay claiming they are not
compatible, I didn't believe it based on something a Quadralay employee
let slip.
Test Conditions:
Frame 8 Unstructured (file had conditions and x-refs)

every Xref in your document becomes boring, unclickable
I've played with the pre-release beta, and now the demo, and my general
assessment is positive.
FrameMaker 8 is a base-of-platform release, meaning that Adobe threw in
the basic features it's going to develop and augment in the 8-series
line, mainly to bring it up to par with other Adobe software

I have worked with both extensively... FrameMaker offers true XML
authoring capability. Don't be deceived by a structure view: InDesign is
taking steps towards being an XML formatting engine, but really isn't
there in terms of authoring. The "map styles to tags" feature, for
example, is extremely

FM's hyperlink pop-up menus aren't converted PDF.
