Jennifer, if you can find a graceful way of converting Frame files to
PageMaker files, please post it to the list. We've run into this several
times, and each time it's turned into an exercise in creating the layout,
saving the Frame file as an rtf, importing the rtf into PageMaker, then
*cleaning up*. (The cleanup is a significant effort.)
Let me know if you find a better solution!
