If you import intricate graphics from another source FrameMaker will
probably ruin them.

FrameMaker has an internal precision of less than 100 dots per inch!  So,
although it has the tools to edit graphics pretty nicely, and it looks
okay on the screen, what gets sent to the printer can end up looking
pretty sad.

The tech support person I spoke with on the phone said that it would
improve some with the next version (in 6 months or so) but that it still
wouldn't be 300 dpi (which is what most laser printers do).

Such a nice package otherwise, too bad the developers forgot to plug their
brains in before they started.

Trying to demo without the save function is a real pain.  Fortunately they
seemed happy to provide us with the necessary information to turn it on
when we gave them a call.

p.s.  Does anyone know anything about a package called Alis?
