I'm thinking of purchasing FrameMaker or PageMaker, trying to
make up my mind--so the issue interests me.
I have two compatability questions:
1. Are (or to what degree are) FrameMaker files compatible with
PageMaker files?
2. To what degree are Mac PageMaker files compatible with PC
PageMaker files?
I guess the general question is this: I plan to be moving between
three applications--PM/Mac, PM/PC, and FrameMaker--and am wondering
how hard/easy that will be.
