In the past I've used FrameMaker for documentation. My current client is
using Word for all of their manuals (each under 100 pages) but would be
willing to switch to FrameMaker.
What are the pros and cons for Word and FrameMaker. I haven't used Word to
create a book before, and it seems a bit clunky. Any suggestions.
Has anyone ported documents from Word into Frame? What is the process like,
how much time would it take?
Thanks for the input.
