Subject:SUMMARY: PageMaker to FrameMaker question From:Sonja Draeger <sdraeger -at- NORMAN -dot- COM -dot- AU> Date:Tue, 16 Mar 1999 09:57:50 +1100
Finally I've got time to say thanks to all who helped with my question.
Most of the information I received told me to either
* save the PageMaker information as an RTF and import the RTF into
FrameMaker,
* export the info. from PM as an RTF and import it into FM,
* export the info. from PM to a text file, then open it in FM, or
* save the PM file as an EPS and import it into FM.
The only problem is that I don't have PM! (I forgot to mention that.
Sorry!) The PM info. was sent to me by someone else. I ended up having them
send it to me as a PDF, then I and copied and pasted it into my document.
Thanks again for all of your advice.
Sonja
