RD,
Another tech writer gave me this document moons ago and I've always found it very helpful for conversions.

Subject: Word to FrameMaker Conversion

Hi-

I'm contemplating moving a 1000 page Word doc to FrameMaker. This document has a lot of tables so I'm guessing I will have to reformat all of them. I'm sure there will be other problems. Is there anyone who can advise me on Word-to-Frame conversion projects and what problems I may encounter? I know in the long run having this document in FrameMaker will save me time and aggravation but I'm nervous about what the conversion will entail.

Thanks-
RD
