Although I'm sure Framemaker is a good product, I recommend that you also give
consideration to the Mac version of Ventura Publisher.  I use it and I think
it's very good.  Additionally, it accepts a myriad of PC-based text and
graphics files.  Also, it's probably much less expensive than Framemaker.


For illustrations, I would recommend Canvas (from Deneba Software) or
Aldus Freehand for illustrating.  If you do alot of scanning, I would
recommend Chromascan scanning software and Adobe Photoshop for modifying
and cleaning up scanned files.

Good luck.
