>>Bait taken: The "last you heard" from which source?
Yes, I'm curious about that as well. We deal with a lot of different tools,
and I haven't seen a dominance of Framemaker out there so far.
>From my observation, strictly anecdotal, the attrition of tech pubs
departments has left the remaining staff untrained in Framemaker, so
documents are getting done in MSWord, instead. Some of it isn't done well,
again because remaining staff is untrained and inexperienced.
I'd really be interested if anyone has seen evidence to the contrary.
