      Good advice, but there hasn't been a FrameMaker manual since FM7.
      :) 


Well, I suppose that's true if you are talking about a printed and bound ("dead tree") manual. But there certainly has been a PDF that calls itself tieh FrameMaker User Guide that is right there in the Documents folder within a standard FrameMaker installation. 

This is not to say that the manual is very comprehensive (it's not) or very useable (it's not, because the organization is not great and the index is useless). But it does exist, and it does cover some of the various issues that the OP has asked about. In general, the quality of the FrameMaker User Guide has gone steadily downhill since version 5.0, which was pre-Adobe. The manual shrank by about 30% for v5.5.6, and since then every addition to the manual seems to be offset by a similar sized deletion.
