The guide itself is very practical and useful. It comes with a CD that has
the FrameMaker templates that were used to publish the books. If you
already have FrameMaker, you can open the files and start customising now
or just use the templates as they are.
If you don't have FrameMaker, you could mimic the RMF styles in your
publishing tool of choice. It's not ideal, but if you only have 15 days...
