I'm using FrontPage2000. If significant improvements have been made in the
way FP2003 handles CSS and HTML coding, then I'm going to try FP2003. FP's
integration with other Office products is a real incentive to try to make
it work.
I'd still use Acrobat, though, to convert a FrontPage website into print.
I don't know of any better way to have documents that can be viewed on the
Web and also printed on paper.

What version of FrontPage are you using Beth? I'm using 2003 and it no
longer inserts any junk.....and CSS in FrontPage is now pretty effortless
also.
Anyway....bottom line is.....if we are discussing web page creation in
THIS
group, the only two programs we can discuss are Publisher and FrontPage,
because they are both part of Office.....Dreamweaver is not, so please
let's
not turn this into a Dreamweaver tutorial thread.....if anyone wants to
talk
about Dreamweaver, please take that to another group, cuz it's off-topic
in
here.
But, I really don't see any extra code added, using FrontPage 2003....and
I
find it very user friendly.
Publisher is a desktop publishing application and that's what it should be
used for....and NOT for creating web pages.

Veering a little bit away from Microsoft Office, but ...
I think that currently the best way to have something in print that looks
like itself on the Web is to go the other way: Make the HTML document
first and then capture it with Adobe Acrobat.
Single HTML files are a snap, but even for a collection of website files,
the conversion from HTML to PDF is virtually painless: In Acrobat you have
control over how much of a website's collection of files you wish to
capture by specifying how many levels of linked files you want to get. And
you can capture either from the uploaded website or from the original
files on your own computer.
I've been very happy with Publisher for print media since I discovered
Publisher97. I tried the conversion-to-HTML feature when it first
appeared, and it was such a nightmare I never tried it again. I really
wanted to like FrontPage, which I've used for the past several years, but
it hasn't happened. FrontPage invisibly inserts a lot of junk code.
Sometimes I go in and take out the extra junk, but more often just leave
in to avoid complication. And if I have to insert HTML code (which is
occasionally unavoidable), the process is rarely trouble-free. (I'm no
HTML coding virtuoso.)
