(more stuff to make to make company sales reps cry) I don't know what organization that is but if it is really of that magnitude and really needs publishing software, I am SURE that Frame would be happy to grant you a temporary license and provide instruction and support- just give them a call. They didn't get where they are today by sealing their product in a box and selling it to Egghead. They live by corporate accounts, and I know they would be accomodating. They would be silly not to give you what you want, and you'd be silly not to ask. They're even right here in the bay area. I have no association with Frame, but thanks to their demo I've had a chance to try out their neat product. Jonathan Dubman
