Many people don't realize that there is no functional difference between
FrameMaker and FrameMaker Server -- the only difference is a piece of
paper in the box (the end-user license agreement). Essentially, if you
are using FrameMaker as an automated rendering engine, FrameMaker Server
is required.
Your plan is sound, but feel free to prototype/test with FrameMaker and
the FDK or FrameScript for the automated components.
