In the early 1990s, a wave of UNIX workstation vendors—[[Apollo Computer|Apollo]], [[Data General]], [[MIPS Computer Systems Inc.|MIPS]], [[Motorola]] and [[Sony]]—provided funding to Frame Technology for an [[original equipment manufacturer|OEM]] version for their platforms.
 
At the height of its success, FrameMaker ran on more than thirteen UNIX platforms, including [[NeXT|NeXT Computer]]'s [[NeXTSTEP]] and [[IBM]]'s [[AIX operating system|AIX]] operating systems. The NeXT and AIX version of FrameMaker used [[Display PostScript]] technology, whereas all other UNIX versions used the [[X Window System]]-[[Motif (software)|Motif]] windowing environment.
 
Sun Microsystems and [[AT&T Inc.|AT&T]] were promoting the [[OPEN LOOK]] [[GUI]] standard to win over Motif, so Sun contracted Frame Technology to implement a version of FrameMaker on their [[PostScript]]-based [[NeWS]] windowing system. The NeWS version of FrameMaker was successfully released to those customers adopting the OPEN LOOK standards.
