I have a small workgroup and a small file server. If I license FrameMaker Server 9, can all the users in my workgroup use FrameMaker?
If FrameMaker 9 will be used interactively by those users, then you probably should not order FrameMaker Server 9. Each user in the workgroup must be licensed to use the desktop version. On Windows® desktops, that means you must get one FrameMaker 9 license per user. If your users have Solaris™ desktops, you can either get one Personal license per user, or you can order a shared user license that allows a maximum specified number of concurrent users. Concurrent-use licenses are not available for Windows desktops. If, however, you are building a server-based solution that your users access programmatically or through third-party software (such as a web browser) and you need to use FrameMaker in a noninteractive, automated way to produce print or PDF output, then you should license FrameMaker Server 9.
