FrameMaker is Compatible with Mac in the future?

Is anyone aware if future versions of FrameMaker will be ever compatible with a Mac? I used to work on a Windows computer, and I really enjoyed using FrameMaker to create installation/operating manuals. I work on a Mac now, and I wonder if it is ever available with a Mac.

Thank you!

Thank you for your reply peter knowhowpro. I know that it is possible to run FrameMaker of Windows on a Mac, but more specifically, I was wondering if there are plans to make future versions of compatible with a Mac FrameMaker. Your answer is always very useful. I might have to switch to InDesign. Thank you!

You're welcome, Bonnie.

You're pointing out I didn't REALLY answer your question, because I didn't say something like: "if it is planned, someone who knows can not say, as they would be committed to a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) and violating the agreement would cause the person to lose any participation in any Adobe NDA later.»

I replied obliquely suggesting a Google search for previous discussions on the issue, as there are a few reasons why Adobe probably wouldn't not even contemplate the task, as well as suggestions of how, in theory, it would be easy for Adobe to adjust a few things and magically have FrameMaker for Mac.

Except for the cost of Windows (if you use the BootCamp free from Apple) or the additional cost of Parallels or Fusion and maybe add RAM, FrameMaker in Windows on a Mac is almost a perfect reproduction of FrameMaker in Windows on a PC.

I'm writing a book on InDesign for FrameMaker users. Try the Google search, I proposed views, experiences and opinions of those who have thought about this movement, as well as those who / ve has stepped over the line. If you make no movement, post your questions and discoveries on the InDesign user forum.

HTH

Kind regards

Peter
