I have created content and formatted a lot of long docs in WordPerfect and Word. Then I discovered Frame. The lack of "would be nice to have" features where clearly overshadowed by the book publishing features, robustness and predictability of Frame. Despite the repeated rumours, Frame isn't dead yet. Microsoft has not yet been able to develop Word so that it can replace Frame (I am not sure that that is the intention anyway) and I have not found a professional publishing tool that can do what Frame does at that price. Until then, a lot of people will continue to use Frame.
