    Reasons to move from Microsoft Word to Adobe FrameMaker for Technical Documentation Whitepaper Top 10 reasons to move from Microsoft Word to Adobe FrameMaker for Technical Documentation We recently assisted a defence customer to transition from MS Word to Adobe FrameMaker. With the transition, several different sized technical publication templates were developed in FrameMaker. Some of the more complex requirements included the capability to have full page graphics from size A4 all the way up to large throw clears that were 147cm wide (7 x A4 size) . There was full front and back matter, including List Of Effective Pages (LOEP), with set positions for this front matter in the book. There was a requirement to place an Amendment Leaflet (AL) number, in the footer area. There was also a requirement to have Warning, Caution, and Notes inserted consistent in size and position to the Military specification. Once templates were complete and data converted and working in the templates, the team was trained in Adobe FrameMaker features and specifically in the use of their FrameMaker books to ensure they achieved the most in their new working environment.

  • Adobe Framemaker (2019 Release)-For XML/DITA Authoring
    FrameMaker 2019 and MS Word 2016 Feature Comparison How to determine which product best matches different projects or workflows for technical documentation. Adobe FrameMaker (2019 release) For a 30-day free trial, visit www.adobe.com/go/tryframemaker To schedule a private demo, visit www.adobetechcommdemo.com FrameMaker vs Word Comparison Guide FrameMaker and Word are not “competitors” It’s a common misconception that FrameMaker ‘competes’ with Microsoft Word. Not really. Many customers are forced to choose between the two products due to budget constraints or misinformed management. At first glance, they seem to be similar authoring solutions: both the products perform word processing and multi-column page layout, both are capable of working with multiple files and generating Tables of Content and Indices, albeit on very different levels of strength and productivity. It’s when you compare tables, equations, and options for positioning graphics that the contrast between FrameMaker and Word becomes especially evident. FrameMaker and Word grew up with very different customer needs Microsoft Word was initially developed as a “personal productivity” tool: a word processor for a personal computer. For years, Microsoft’s main focus for Word was the single-author creation of letters, memos, and typical short office documents. Anything longer than 10 pages was considered a “long” document. FrameMaker was introduced in 1986, shortly after Microsoft Word’s introduction in 1983. For the first decade and a half of its history, very few Word users utilized the software to create complex, technical documentation comprising elements like multiple tables and graphics with varied page placements, because it was all simply too difficult.
