Framemaker Uses

[McCallister, Michael (GE Healthcare, consultant)]

Now that Rene mentions it ... When I wrote "SUSE Linux 10 Unleashed," a
couple years ago, my editors at Sams Publishing said they accepted FM
and Word files, but since it was a Linux book, doing it in Frame wasn't
practical (way too much rebooting involved). For the 2nd edition
("openSUSE Linux Unleashed"--in better bookstores everywhere now), I
didn't even think about it.

But I would guess that more than one book from
Sams/Prentice-Hall/Peachpit/whoever else is in that part of the
publishing universe has been written using FrameMaker.

One would think Vogue would be sourced in Quark... :)}

Does JoAnn Hackos use FM to write her books...?

I know of some who use FM for catalogs, though, as well as others who
write in FM for the airline industry. :-)

Just out of curiosity, what kinds of documents are people producing in
Framemaker?

Our department produces aeronautial documents, such as Component
Maintenance Manuals, Aircraft Maintenance Manuals, Wiring Diagram
Manuals, and Illustrated Parts Catalogs.

Do people produce books and magazines with Framemaker?  Is Stephen King
writing his next masterpiece on Framemaker?  Does Anna Wintour use
Framemaker to kick the next issue of Vogue to the curb? Are there
websites that have been created in a Framemaker environment?

I'm curious to know how widely used this product is and for what
applications.

Thanks!

Deirdre
