FYI: Deal for upgrading from FM7.x to FM10 ends June 15

[Laura Fergusson]

Rick,

Could you please advise how it compares to Frame 8? I'm using 8 on Windows and it's served me well with few issues, but I feel there are a few features worth having in Frame 10.

Cheers
Laura

FrameMaker 10 is by far more stable than FrameMaker 9. Whether or not you like the new interface is another story.

The offer is "Adobe FrameMaker 7.X customers can receive a savings of 30% on the FULL version of FrameMaker 10 software purchased through Adobe Customer Service, or a participating reseller worldwide."

Adobe charges $999, 30% off that is $699. Amazon charges $634.

Personally I'd stick with 7 unless I had a specific reason to upgade.
Adobe introduced a lot of bugs with the UI makeover in FM9 and if anything they got worse in FM10. The last new feature they added that I have any use for was the multiple undo in 7.2.
