Hi all
Slight wee bit of a clarification here.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no TechComm Studio package. There
is, however, a Technical Communications Suite from Adobe and it consists
of four products:
* FrameMaker version 8
* RoboHelp version 7 (From a logical perspective, this is version 15)
* Captivate 3 (From a logical perspective, this is version 8)
* Acrobat Professional with a 3D modeling engine
Dreamweaver, Flash and InDesign are not part of this package.
Cheers... Rick :)
