Sorry, I should've clarified my purpose in asking the question.
I helping out a physics prof from MIT who is formating his own book on
Einstein's Theory of General Relativity--heavy duty technical, charts,
graphs, equations. I want to help him make a choice about which program
to use and give him advice on document design issues. He has used
Pagemaker 5.0 a little and would be willing to switch to Frame only if
really worth it. So I thought I'd see what other people think about the
differences between the programs and when you'd use either.
