Re: Q: Word to Frame conversion, what to look for?

[Sheila Carlisle <scarlisle -at- axialinfo -dot- com>]

Leslie, if you haven't checked it out yet, there's a lot of great 
information about Word to Frame conversions in the FrameMaker section 
of  the Adobe website's User-to-User forum. Be sure to watch for Tim 
Murray's postings, as he has a website setup with lots of good tips and 
workarounds, at http://www.techknowledgecorp.com

As far as your graphics, the answer is "it depends" on several things, 
but the best results are usually from importing the original graphic 
file directly into FM, rather than relying on graphics that have been 
pasted into Word.

Tables usually need tweaking, depending on how they were designed. Some 
cell effects in Word are not possible in FM. There's a great utility 
called TableCleaner by Rick Quatro that helps enormously in Word-to-FM 
conversions, at http://www.frameexpert.com
