Framemaker 5.5.6 on MacOSX via classic?

[Alan Gauld]

Hi, I'm a newbie - I just ordered an iBook today and have never used an Apple before. I needed Unix on a laptop and Linux is just too much hassle...

My question is:
I wonder if anyone has used FrameMaker 5.5.6 on MacOSX under classic?(I know v6 works but I'm still on 5.5...) The CD says it requires MacOS 8.6 or later. Will I need to boot into MacOS 9 to use Frame?

I am using it in Classic mode just fine. The only thing to remember is that any fonts you want to use have to be in the OS9 System Folder.

Thanks, I would have upgraded to 6 but I'd rather wait for 7 which has just been announced... Looks like that plan will work fine.
