Brand: Adobe EAN: 0718659117597 Format: CD-ROM Label: Adobe Manufacturer: Adobe Model: 27910344 Platform: Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows 95 Publisher: Adobe Studio: Adobe Editorial Review: Amazon.com Review: Adobe's FrameMaker 6.0 allows any author or organization to print or publish documents and books of virtually any size in a variety of electronic formats (including PDF, HTML, and XML). Whether you distribute reports, technical documents, or even full-length books, the latest version of FrameMaker offers a powerful mix of features that will let you move your publishing efforts online with a minimum of effort. Just as Adobe once pioneered paper-based desktop publishing with its PageMaker software, FrameMaker makes the same claim for electronic publishing in the Internet era. First and foremost, FrameMaker lets you lay out your page content with a capable set of tools and wizards. You can assemble small or large documents of even hundreds of pages from separate files (which can be imported from Microsoft Word or WordPerfect files as well as PDF and other formats). You can also add hyperlinks and graphics to your document easily. In testing, we assembled an "e-book" from a literary manuscript of over two hundred pages, broken into a dozen chapters. FrameMaker includes solid word- processing abilities--even a spell checker and thesaurus--plus text and graphics layout tools, so it was easy to add chapter headings and tweak text as we created the larger document. A real strength here is that as you add pages, FrameMaker updates all links (along with page numbers) between the table of contents, chapters, and index. The application includes a separate book file format and offers templates for blank chapters and other book components, so you can create and store books easily. An absolutely indispensable feature here is the ability to search and replace words across all sections of a document. Another notable strength of FrameMaker 6.0 is its support for today's electronic publishing standards. Once your FrameMaker documents are assembled, you can distribute them in HTML, PDF, and XML. A separate bundled utility, Quadralay's WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition, takes you even further with support for XML with Cascading Stylesheets (CSS) and XSL. (These options let you view your content with more precise formatting within today's browsers.) In all, with its strong mix of layout features and support for a wide variety of electronic standards, FrameMaker will help anyone publish documents online successfully. --Rich Dragan Amazon.com Product Description: The multichannel technical publishing solution for print and the Web, Adobe FrameMaker 6.0 software delivers a comprehensive solution for publishing long, content-rich documents across multiple channels. Whether publishing to the Web, CD-ROM, or print, FrameMaker 6.0 offers improved book-building features, including bookwide commands, and gives you the power of Quadralay WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition software for enhanced HTML and XML capabilities. This version also supports creation of structured PDF files. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Essential For Book Publishing!This is a fantastic product for book publishing. As a relative novice to book typesetting and interior design, I bought Framemaker 6.0 as my only chance to produce a book worthy of any major publishing house. A sincere thank you to Adobe's team of software specialists in designing a product, which truly worked for all our stringent page layout and publishing requirements! The manual is rather daunting at first, but I got my bearings by just reading through all of it from cover to cover before actually ... Read More Rating: - High-End Publishing ToolAdobe FrameMaker 6.0 is a high-end utility, which combines the functions of an advanced word processor, layout program, mathematical editor and pre-processing software for commercial printing. ___________________________ DOCUMENT-WIDE EDITING The document structure construction tools are the most powerful feature of FrameMaker. Instead of simple overlay of text formatting, Frame also allows you to work with character and paragraph designs which, once set, can be applied to any paragraph ... Read More Rating:  - Framemaker, excellent but....Framemaker is an excellent product that offers all sorts of advanced features. For example, it is simple to produce and print out a double-sided document with a universally applied page format. However, the instruction manual is the worse example of documentation that I have ever experienced. After completing production of a book (several files amalgamated into one group that may be worked on as an entity)it is reasonable to assume the next step will be to generate a list of contents. You will have to work it ... Read More Rating: - The standard for professional desktop bookmakingAdobe Framemaker is the industry standard for professional desktop bookmaking. Widely used by technical writers in the computer industry, Framemaker is the only desktop publishing software that can handle the production and publication of 1,000+ page books. (MS Word usually falls apart at around 300 pages.) Framemaker has fully enabled style mark-up, indexing, and cross-referencing features, as well as being the only word processing package on the market _designed_ to be coupled with Adobe Acrobat to create ...
