Can anyone suggest a book, website, or course containing step-by-step tutorials that gradually building complexity, while teaching FrameMaker concepts? Thank you in advance!

This is just a continual update of the unstructured FrameMaker series.

Since you asked...I have two full length courses that go beyond the quick start course I developed for the Adobe site:

I also have fully independent structured content versions of these courses.

A big thanks to my good friends Dave and Rick for the shoutout! It's worth noting that Rick contributed the ExtendScript chapter included in my reference book, and you might have already seen he's an invaluable scripting resource on this site.

Please note that Dave, Barb, and I also teach FrameMaker, and have done so for many years.

I'm also a fan of the FrameMaker Essentials series, and I authored the last 4 sessions (11-14) in that series, which deal with structure.
