I'm impressed with Adobe

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Tina,

I appreciate your thoughts, but if you look at it from a larger perspective, 
Adobe shouldn't get too much credit here. FrameMaker has had PDF (another 
Adobe technology) integration for a long time and this should have been 
fixed before FrameMaker 8 was released. We are not asking for perfect 
software, but it should at least work as well as previous versions.

Yes, we now know that FrameMaker is not dead. But it is evident that it is 
not getting a lot of Adobe's resources or attention, at least not compared 
to other Adobe products.
