and markers.

testing and troubleshooting scripts: commands, messages and dialogs,
subroutines and functions, lists; working with FrameMaker objects;

"I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed
the FrameMaker and Acrobat seminars that I attended last week
in Boston. During my 20 years as a technical writer, I've attended
many training courses and seminars - but have never attended
any as helpful as yours. You are a great presenter, and I am
in awe of the depth of your FrameMaker and Acrobat knowledge.
Thanks so much for a wonderful seminar." -- Julia Brand,
Documentation Specialist, The College Board | "Your
class was a real eye-opener for me in template design. I really
appreciate all the things I learned that I can use in my career
in general and also at my current job." -- Melissa Clark,
Centillium Communications | "This was the best professional
course I have ever attended and the seminar exceeded my expectations
in every way. Your knowledge base, patience, organization and
presentation of course materials and clarity were excellent."
-- Miriam Hill, Check Point Software Technologies | "I
wanted to thank you for a very informative course on template
design. Originally, I thought that I would already know
much of what you would be teaching, but the course only proved
that there is always so much more to learn." -- O. Zimmerman,
Tadiran Telecom
"This course is the 'definitive' course to attend
if you are in any way interested in creating PDF files from FrameMaker.
On the top, the course covers the basics you need to create more
effective PDFs. Delving more into the course you'll also discover
features that you wouldn't think are possible without having
to do a lot of manual work in Acrobat after first creating your
PDFs." -- Mark Poston, Electronic Publishing Consultant,
Mekon Ltd. eContent Solutions | "This was the
best training course I've ever attended, bar none. I will recommend
it to everyone I know in our field ... Excellent course
materials, thorough and well organized, professional appearance,
plenty of detailed theory backed up by explicit examples ...
The seminar exceeded my expectations. I got Everything and
More from this terrific course!" -- Randy Heath,
Ascend Communications | More feedback from participants in FM-to-Acrobat
Advanced Techniques seminars & courses
"You gave us so much valuable information in so little
time! I know we will put this to excellent use in the future
... in fact, I have started already!" -- Elizabeth Miller,
