We are pleased to kick off the first meeting of the 2002-2003 chapter year with Scott Hamlow, an application engineer from Adobe Systems, Inc.

Many of you may recall his visit a few years ago when he introduced FrameMaker 6. His presentation, one of the most highly attended in our chapter's history, was first rate and left us wanting more.

He covered the topics that are important to technical writers, he told us about shortcuts and tricks, he demonstrated a thorough understanding of the program, and he did a great job fielding questions from the audience. Therefore, we had to have him back to introduce FrameMaker 7.0.

Scott has been in the document publishing industry since 1991. He began as a technical editor and writer and learned Adobe FrameMaker and Adobe Acrobat. He also learned the intricacies of the PDF and PostScript file formats.

Scott quickly saw the value of single-source publishing with Adobe FrameMaker and all of the benefits of Adobe PDF. This has been his focus since he joined Adobe Systems in 1999.

Please join us for an informative evening discussing the new features of FrameMaker 7.0 as well as XML, single-source publishing, and the concept of structured authoring. [Meeting details.]
