Re: Upgrades

["David C. Spreadbury" <dspreadb@xxxxxxxx>]

Go to http://www.adobe.com/supportservice/custsupport/NOTES/949e.htm. This
is a FrameMaker 5.5.6 Update notice. It includes What's Covered, Feature
Enhancements, How to Order, Pricing and Part Numbers,, Shipping, and
Post-Announce Pricing. I recently ordered the upgrade, don't have it yet,
and was told by Adobe Customer Support that it was not necessary to order X
copies if they are all on the same platform. Order one copy, per platform,
to upgrade all licensed users. I ordered one each for three platform types
(Win95, Mac, and UNIX). All my systems will then be upgraded.
