Re: Aware of such a System

[Gail Former <gail -dot- former -at- accenttech -dot- com>]

Are there any open source CMS's out there for print applications? 
Everything we've looked at so far is either extremely pricey (commercial 
applications), or seems to be for the web. What we need at the moment is 
something for paper output (PDFs) that works with structured FrameMaker 
and is either open source or reasonably priced.

Or are we missing the point completely, and those that appear to be for 
the web will work for any output?

Sorry to sound so stupid, but this is not my area of expertise.
