Hehehe... newsletters... Use Word for that stuff... FrameMaker is great for structured authoring in a controlled environment. It's for people who need to deploy consistent style and structure over multiple books and multiple authors. It's for people who don't want to spend time tweaking every character and image until the visial design of the page is "just so". In short, it's for producing long, complex documents with ease. InDesign is another powerful tool, but more geared for layout purposes, not quite technical information authoring. In short, FrameMaker is about content, and InDesign is about presentation.
