For unstructured Fm users, I see these reasons to upgrade from 6 to 7:

1) Improved Save as PDF.

2) Improved RTF import and export (after the FM 7 filter patch, it is even better <hehe>). Really, this is a timesaver.

3) XLS import.

4) AI import.

5) More running header/footers (12 I think, versus 4 for v6).

6) What Thomas said about attaching master pages to tags (I've not used it yet, but I can see uses for it).

7) The ability to play with SGML even if you don't yet use it.

For the Word and Excel import alone, I think the upgrade is worth it.

Cheers,

Sean
