- towndrunk 16y agoAdobe's FrameMaker?
- bjelkeman-again 16y agoI used to work for a Framemaker competitor, Interleaf, which was better at long documents and customizable in Lisp to boot. The longest document i participated working on was 30,000 pages and was successfully published on schedule. But Interleaf is not available now in any meaningful way. I hate trying to produce anything longer than a couple of pages in Word and get predictable results. But it is often the required document standard in academia those days. Fortunately I discovered Scrivener, albeit not available on Linux. But I find it a great writing tool without having to code in TeX, which just isn't something i want to do anymore. :)
- kamechan 16y agowhy pay for it when i can get it for free? LyX FTW! TBH, i've never used framemaker and their site makes me want to give it a try. TODO: give it a try.
