Hi:

I recently purchased the FrameMaker 8 and Acrobat 8 upgrades. I received them more than a month ago but have yet to open the boxes.

That's primarily because (1) I have a very solid, reliable, trustworthy tools set in the form of FrameMaker 7.0 and Acrobat 5, and (2) I keep reading and hearing about a variety of annoying "gotcha" problems with either or both of the version 8 tools.

Secondarily, it's because I'm not aware of any "must have" features in the version 8 tools.

So, for those who have upgraded I have a question: Knowing now what you do about the performance of the version 8 products, do you recommend that I take a deep breath and install the upgrades or shall I continue to postpone the possibly disruptive upgrade 'til the products become a bit more trustworthy?

Cheers & thanks (and have a GREAT weekend),
Riley
