Today Adobe announced the release of the new Technical Communication Suite, a bundle that includes the following programs:

  • FrameMaker 8
  • RoboHelp 7
  • Captivate 3
  • Acrobat 3D Version 8

The press release touts a “major upgrade to RoboHelp”, but apart from that, it remains to be seen how useful the new bundling scheme will prove as many of those with a need for software like this certainly already own one or more of the tools in the package.
