Hi, jtcinc,
> What is Adobe's position on opening files from a network location
The answer is don't with Pagemaker.
For a more formal statement on workflow, see:
Recommended Workflow For Creating PageMaker Publications
Here's the relevant extracts from the above page:
Open publications from the hard disk.
Before you open a publication stored on removable media (for example, a Zip disk) or a network drive, copy it and all linked graphics files to your hard disk. Slow access times between the hard disk and removable or network disks can cause data to become incomplete, lost, or corrupt, resulting in damage to the publication.
Save publications to the hard disk.
Always work from and save publications to the hard disk. If you need to store publications on a network drive or removable media, close the publication, and then copy or move it and any linked files from the hard drive to the external drive. This workflow lets the system copy and verify the publication, helping to prevent damage or data loss. Files can become damaged if the network goes down or a volume becomes unavailable when any application is reading from or writing to an external disk. For this reason, you should also store linked graphics files locally.
Hope this helps.
