Re: PageMaker vs. Framemaker (those who've used both)

["T.W. Smith" <techwordsmith -at- gmail -dot- com>]

PageMaker is discontinued.

FM 7.1 has a PageMaker import filter ... it's hit or miss but better
than not having one.

IMHO, FM is better than PM for long technical documents, featuring
repeating style elements, graphics, numbered lists, TOCs, LOFs, LOTs,
and Indexes. PM is better for multi-flow documents and documents where
the page layout is more varied.
