Frankly, if you can't distinguish between a user and app. failures, please do mark-as-ignore. There's nothing impolite to anyone in this forum in stating the simple fact that an Adobe product is junk.

As for venting the fact, I refuse to subscribe to the notion one should be calm about deceitful advertising and junkware, whether Adobe's or anyone else's.

I wish I had never opened FrameMaker. I got it expressly because it is advertised to import seamlessly into RoboHelp 7. It does not, and RoboHelp 7 is likewise rife with deceitful interface functionality that simply does not work. Lie-ware.

Adobe has two fine products, Photoshop and Illustrator. Based on Illustrator, InDesign also seems to behave quite well and I'd have gone with that app if I'd known about Adobe's RoboHelp and FrameMaker barefaced contempt for usability.

Really, FM is a dog among dogs.
