I just downloaded the 30-day trial version of FrameMaker 9. Our company is thinking of buying it for our technical documentation. I have never used it before and am finding it very user-unfriendly. There are no free video tutorials available. I imported a Microsoft Word document and was trying to set up a master page and fix the page numbering with odd/even page numbers. I followed the instructions (or so I thought) and all my page numbers were "4". I am a little frustrated and am having second thoughts about this program. I thought Word was difficult to manipulate for technical documents but I can't even get started with FrameMaker. If anyone knows of a good video tutorial or even good hard copy step-by-step instructions--not the user guide, I would sure appreciate it.
