Shannon,
(Off the top of my head/for PM5 for the Macintosh)
1. Place your text tool in the story you want to convert.
2. Press command-E to "Edit Story"
3. Click on the FILE menu and select "Export."
4. A Save dialog box should appear. Choose "Rich Text Format" from the
Format pop-up menu.
If you have more than one story in your file, you'll need to do more work,
of course.
