Is FM11 completely backward compatible with FM10?

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Jim,

 

FrameMaker always lets you save back one version, but you have to explicitly
choose File > Save As and choose the previous version. I have a simple,
inexpensive ExtendScript script that you can install with FrameMaker 11 that
will automatically save to FrameMaker 10. If you are interested, please
contact me offlist. Thank you very much.

Happy Tuesday Framers!

 

We are adding a writer and current have FM10. I want to buy FM10 or FM11 but
am not sure if FM11 is completely backward compatible with FM10. Can anyone
verify that the FM working files are interchangeable between FM11 & FM10,
with no special save to FM10 steps? I know there's a difference and I think
that is DITA output with FM11 (Thanks to Klaus for the FM feature history!).
I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has been down this road before me.

 

Thanks in advance!
