Summary: Just an Intro
Comment: As others have noted, this book doesn't cover everything. On the one hand it's well-written so you can whiz through; on the other hand, about all you're learning is some of the most basic functions.
This can be confusing and/or misleading--especially when a complex procedure isn't clarified. For example, in setting up paragraph formats, when does one "apply" and then "update," when does one just "update"?
Also, I found that some of the instructions didn't work as laid out--instead I had to do work arounds. For instance, the book said you could set up arrows to move back and forth in a document and then copy the arrow setup (like a template) to successive pages. The arrows do copy but the formatting doesn't--it needs to be reapplied, so I assume all formats aren't saved when they're copied. [As an aside, I also found that "copy" on the context menu doesn't "copy" everything (which I expected after using MS Word).]
A final note: FrameMaker has great capabilities--though somewhat clunky and ponderous, it's a great improvement on MS Word for more complex activities.

Summary: UNKNOWN LANGUAGE
Comment: MY HUSBAND BOUGHT YOUR BOOK A WEEK AGO AND HAS A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH IT, BECAUSE THE COMPUTER HE'S ON HAS DIFFERENT SYMBOLS THAN THE BOOK DESCRIBES. HE'S HAD TO CHANGE HIS CAREER FROM BEING A MODEL MAKER TO NOW LEARN THE COMPUTER SIDE OF THINGS. YOU NEED TO COME OUT WITH A BOOK THAT SHOWS THE SYMBOLS TO THE COMPUTER PROGRAM .

Summary: Helpful even for veteran Frame users
Comment: If you already own or use a copy of FrameMaker at work, and you need additional skills in using the software, or want to learn more of the powerful features Frame has to offer, this book will be useful to you. I can't say how helpful it would be to a new user, but for anyone who's been muddling through by learning how to use Frame on their own, this book will teach you many things you don't already know, and will help you create better-constructed documents. Remember to practice on documents you create yourself (from scratch) or the lessons won't stick.
