TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
"Pay no attention to comments related to earlier, non-suite versions of
FM and RH -- they're not relevant to the suite, which offers the
integration that makes single-sourcing possible (previous versions only
permitted repurposing)."
and...
"if you're happy producing printed
manuals using RH <shudder />, why is FM in the picture at all?"
Richard, are you creating printed manuals using Adobe's suite?
I don't have the suite but from the earlier-referenced review
(http://www.writersua.com/articles/robohelp_7/index.html by Rob Houser),
it appears that Adobe's suite produces printed manuals from RH with
Word, not FrameMaker.
