ExtendScript "Scripting Guide Adobe FrameMaker ..."

And, here, by the way, is a decent-to-good example of how documentation, etc., can be collected in one place for many versions: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/photoshop/scripting.html

(I don't classify it as an excellent example because it only covers the Scripting topics (but not the other documentation) for the product. That other stuff would have been excellent too!)

Can the FrameMaker team do something simple and consistently like this too? For all the available documentation (for versions other than 12 too), script files, whatever, etc.?

A sorta related question: the Adobe ExtendScript Tookkit (ESTK) was available as a stand-alone download in version 3.5: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/estk/sdk/AdobeExtendScriptToolkit3.5.0-mul.zip

As of version 3.8, it _looks_ like it is only available if you have a Creative Cloud membership license?

Is that a correct assessment of what I see on this page: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/scripting.html where it says "The latest version of ExtendScript Toolkit (ESTK 3.8) is available with Creative Suite 6", but clicking on the link takes you to the Creative Cloud main page?

(There is no link on that page for FrameMaker, by the way ... which is not totally surprising since reference to FrameMaker is quite absent from a number of pages at www.adobe.com where it should be more prominently positioned, IMHO.)

Does anyone know if a new version of this guide is available: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/scripting/framemaker_10_scripting.pdf

A search of their site did not find any version 11 or version 12 guide ... Adobe needs to place documentation (and appropriate links) more consistently on their web-site.
