Hi All,
I'm still using Adobe FrameMaker on a PC which, incidentally, is the one application preventing me switching to Mac completely.
So far I have found nothing else quite hits the spot for producing reasonably long technical documents which have lists, tables and illustrations or photos.
The auto numbering is a bit tricky to learn but once you understand it, it is so versatile. Tables of Contents are a cinch as are cross-references and external links. Building multi chapter documents is easy and features like conditional text are a real show stealer when producing documents for different products which share a similar "parent".
I've tried Quark, InDesign, Scribus, LibreOffice, even Word (!) and quite a few more but I always come back to FrameMaker.
Here's hoping Affinity Publisher can provide the 3rd "must have" application to complete the trio!
Cheers
Brian
