7.1: Powerful capabilities for working with XML documents by
Brian Barbash
"... Adobe FrameMaker 7.1 provides a powerful set
of capabilities for working with XML documents. Although this
is a product that is geared to the authoring and publishing audience,
its capabilities may be used to bridge into the technical world
of XML. It delivers on the promise of separating presentation
from content and allows those with expertise in each area to
work independently. This is a sophisticated solution for a complex
problem..." [Review]Seybold Report: Analyzing Publishing

June 17, 2004 -- Open source cracks publishing wide open
by Mary E. Tyler
"... Culleton makes two points about the strengths of
open source software. First, "All of these tools are supported
by active email lists. I don't have to call an underpaid clerk...
I get superior support from users and maintainers of the software."
... Meanwhile, in the proprietary world, PageMaker is dying a
slow and painful death and is no longer the behemoth of book
production; FrameMaker has been losing ground as well. Adobe
now pushes InDesign. QuarkXpress went years between updates on
the Mac, still the dominant desktop publishing platform. With
proprietary software, Culleton says, "[You] face the potential
discontinuance of the product, just like users of the once excellent
WordPerfect have found their own purgatory -- the Curse of Corel."

John Warnock, founder of Adobe Systems by Conrad Taylor
"... Then there was the other set of the world that
works with highly structured documents, and the FrameMaker world.
And I absolutely love FrameMaker; I’ve been a very strong
proponent of FrameMaker. But FrameMaker was also suffering from
an old codebase.
Essentially, the idea is to start migrating features over to
InDesign. Unfortunately, the InDesign crowd doesn’t understand
the structured document world as well as they need to, and so
that migration has been coming along more slowly than I would
have liked it to have been. ..." [Interview]

UNIX App Developers Interested in OS X by Vern Seward
"... Another indicator of the health of a computing
platform is to look at who is developing for it. High profile
reports of Adobe halting development of FrameMaker for
the Mac, and Microsoft discontinuing the Mac version of Internet

OS X anymore. Nothing could be further from the truth, according
to a report in Internetnews.com..." [Article]

- eWeek, March 1, 2004 -- FrameMaker 7.1 Not
Picture-Perfect by Peter Coffee
"...The January update addresses a weakness in the promise
of two-way XML capability that I noted following the May 2002
release of FrameMaker 7.0. Unfortunately, Version 7.1's
interoperability with Microsoft's Word continues to disappoint,
and the leisurely pace of FrameMaker updates may not satisfy
organizations whose documents originate in Microsoft applications
and go to a publication department for final production."

FrameMaker 7.1: Fast Software for Long Documents by
Susan Glinert
"...The upgrade price of $199 may be too steep for what
amounts to a handful of new filters. But if you treasure your
PageMaker and Quark documents and have been too lazy to port
them to FrameMaker, this upgrade is well worth the price. XML
and SVG junkies will surely find the upgrade worthwhile, too."
