Check out my Long Documents White Paper at www.digipubcorp.com. Frame 5.5.6
does a decent job of exporting and importing RTF, which Word can read.
Acrobat Exchange is a great product for reviewers, because they can't edit
the text but can only post notes, which are then easily compiled.

If you need a product for WinHelp to single-source, Quadralay makes a Frame
to WinHelp and html Help converter.

Subject: another framemaker question


I'm tasked in the coming months to author 2 systems documents. Both of
which will be about 500 pages in length with many screen shots and tables
which need to be reliably indexed. From everything I've read, this sounds
like a job for Framemaker. Unfortunately, someone in the documentation
department said that he tried to get Framemaker as a standard tool here a
few years ago, but was hit with resistance. As it is, all documents must
now be delivered in MS Word format.
I'd like to know if framemaker has an Export-to-Word feature. If it does,
how solid is the implementation? Has anyone else been in a situation like
this, and what have your experiences been.

TIA
