Subject:Frame to Word, RTF, Text. From:Jennifer Gangloff <JENNIFER -dot- T -dot- GANGLOFF -at- CPMX -dot- SAIC -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 18 Jun 1998 08:23:22 -0400
In response to the question below... We had to convert Frame docs to .rft
format, then to .doc format, then to RoboHELP documents....It was, in
short, a pain, and there's no easy shortcut that I'm aware of. From what
I've seen, Word and Frame don't "communicate" very well.
I know Frame allows you to save your docs as .rtf files. Just select....
File: Save As, change your "Files of Type" to an .rtf extension, and then
it should save your file as an .rtf doc.
What are you trying to do w/your files?

I would like to know if there any programs that can convert FrameMaker
documents into the following formats: Word, RTF, or text? Can such programs
come as an add-on to Word, or is a separate program required? If such a
program could be downloaded from a Web site, please let me know.
