Has anyone tried gohtm.com? They ask you to upload your source file and
they email you back a converted RTF or HTML file of your converted PDF. I
tried a test with a page that had 3 tables and some graphics, very
impressive output. I'm still looking into whether the company has a
licensable program, but that's for another day when I have more time to look
into this.

sara -at- e-sim -dot- co -dot- il writes about favourable experience's with this plugin. I
was thinking that it might make sense for me instead of FrameMaker to RTF
conversion (yes, I am also linking into direct FM/MIF to RTF conversions).
I tried the demo, and found that all my text in Arial Bold (which are the
settings for a common character style) were appearing in Wingding Bold! When
I changed that text to Arial, I they were correct. I don't know if that was
a "feature" of the demo (to make results unusable until the product is
purchased) or if that is a weird bug.
