For those of you who asked me to share my answers on converting Pagemaker
to Word.....
Two possibilities:
1) Export Pagemaker document to RTF and then import into Word.
2) Copy the text and imbedded graphics into the clipboard and Paste (or
Paste Special) into a new Word document.
The question came from a client who needs us to convert old Pagemaker docs
to Word as part of another project for him.
We needed to know for sure that we could do it before answering. He's
leaving this afternoon to fly back to Germany.
