Summary: A good introduction to the process of FM to HTML conversion
Comment: Having spent the past three years working in Framemaker, and never having written in HTML, this book served me, at least, as an introduction to HTML for Framemaker-users.

The first 80% of the book was a bit laboured. Largely, it is preaching to the converted (Yes, performing edits on one source file, and producing multiple output forms from that, is preferable to repeating the edits on multiple source files).

The last 20% of the book was far more illuminating, and well worth reading.

Summary: False advertising in the online synopsis.
Comment: I was very excited to see this book listed. For a day and a half I was struggling trying to create a Frame 5.5 template that would satisfy print and html viewing using Frame 5.5's conversion feature. The book stated that it had an entire section devoted to this process. Alas, the book covered a pre-release version of the utility and provided no more information than the sparse Adobe documentation and online help.
The title didn't give the reader a true understanding of the document. I thought they would go into some detail regarding the process. Instead they provided a 1,000 ft view point of four utilities.
I hope I can return the book. The book spent a lot of space on HTML reference and web design. Hopefully, someday specialty writers will realize that a lot of comprehensive, easy-to-use HTML reference documents already exist and spend there space focused on their speciallty.
