[Framers] Jang's F.M. Circus - 7 free Webinars hosted by Adobe

Hello Framers, Adobe asked me to present a series of 7 webinars about various advanced techniques in FrameMaker. The series title is "Jang's F,M. Circus" and the unofficial subtitle is "Making FM jump through hoops". The first event was today, so I apologize for making this anouncement a little
