Unicode in FM 7 - khmm... it's just a marketing joke (1-st April, no) RE: Excitement! FM7? ----> Adobe has announced yet FrameMaker 7 with UNICODE..............

[Dmitri Yunov <yudmi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Matthias.

Some remarks..

Most essential distinctions

1. FrameMaker 6 + FrameMaker+SGML 6 => FrameMaker 7 (FrameMaker+SGML 6 has
died)
2. FrameViewer has died (as well as FrameReader)
3. PlacedPDF 1.4 (and it seems, Tagged PDF also) has not been supported in
UNIX
4. SVG has not been supported in HP-UX and AIX
5. Unicode support in FM7 is THE SAME as in Framemaker 5.5 and 6.

If you like, start FM6 and save Greek (or Polish, Epthiopic, Czech, Russian
or Thai) FM document as XML with UTF8 encodung. See the result with your
favourite XML viewer.

FM 7 and FServer 7 both have absolutelly the same support of Unicode.
Take a look at the section "Q. Does FrameMaker 7.0 support Unicode
characters in XML files?" in faq_xml.pdf and the section "Q. In what
languages can I author documents using FrameMaker 7.0?" in faq.pdf.
Even the CID-encoding  support that Frame has for CJK, was not used to
extend the language authoring abilities in this new version of great
product.

6. It seems the OpenType font format support (for Adobe OpenType Pro
families f.ex.) is missed in FM7.

"$349 for those upgrading from a previous version" 
is too expensive. In the currency of the new 
post-employment economy, that's 2094 packages of 
ramen noodle soup.
