...[O]ne can see that Adobe is taking the product more seriously. I really hope that this stops the rumours of a death in the family at Adobe

What's in this article:
Adobe has released FrameMaker 8.0 and a whole technical communication suite to go with it. According to their website it’s “a flexible, user-friendly, enterprise-class authoring and publishing solution for technical communicators. It combines word processing and XML-based structured authoring with template-based publishing and powerful single-sourcing support to help you create polished technical documentation and books in multiple languages.”
That’s a lot of marketing in a few quick sentences. People want to know what’s actually new, what’s good and what’s not, and what’s worth paying the upgrade price for? In this article, I dive in a bit deeper to discuss features and my personal take on them.
