I see so much on this list about Framemaker, yet I don't see any mention of
Pagemaker or Quark. I'm a Pagemaker person myself, although my company
dictates that all the tech docs are in Word (ugh).
This isn't a "Why Framemaker over Pagemaker?" question as much as it is a
"why do *TechWriters* prefer Framemaker while Marketing and design folks
prefer Quark and Pagemaker?" question.
