We use it to single source our print and online docs with WWP. Some stuff is
tagged for PrintOnly and HelpOnly. We also use it to create docs for two
different versions of our software. We have an Enterprise level and mid
level version of the software (we also have an off the shelf version, but we
haven't rev'd the docs in FrameMaker for that yet). We use condictional text
to tag text for these different versions, so we have one Frame project that
creates print docd and online help for two versions of the product.
