Purchase question

[Bertrand Meyer]

This is a newbie question; on the technical side I am not a FrameMaker newbie, having used it for several decades, but I am not familiar with recent versions since I have stuck to old ones which do what I need, on Solaris and Windows. With recent releases of Windows, however, FrameMaker 7.2, which I still use, crashes increasingly often (for example just using the mouse to select text that includes a table invariably causes a crash). That’s not sustainable so I need to upgrade. For the most recent version all I saw on Adobe’s page is a software-for-rent solution, which is not acceptable. Could someone please recommend a version that is the most recent possible, is available for purchase, works reliably on recent versions of Windows (Windows 8.1, soon Windows 10), will take older *.fm files, generate MIF, and retain the traditional FrameMaker advantages?

 

Thanks in advance,
