[Framers] Adobe licensing is migrating to subscription based

[Lin Sims]

You are correct, and I mentioned that on the FrameMaker group on the Adobe
forums. That's not the only issue on Adobe's site. At the moment, the
only way that I, who have a Teams subscription through work, could upgrade
to FM2020, was to download the free trial. There's a download link on the
account page for our FM subscription, but it takes you to the CREATIVE
CLOUD downloads page and has for more than a year. I've made multiple
complaints but Adobe hasn't fixed it. FM seem to be the red-headed
stepchild of Adobe.

As to an earlier email of yours, there is no difference between someone
upgrading from an earlier version to 2020 or someone getting a new
subscription to 2020. The subscription price is the same for everyone.
There are two annual options (no monthly option for FM!): one is to prepay
for a year (about $360), the other is to pay monthly ($29.99) for a year's
subscription (which totals about $360) with cancellation fees if you cancel
it early.
