Rick,

I have done some work in this direction, both using FrameScript from "inside" 
FrameMaker documents as well as externally after turning FrameMaker files with 
Leximation’s MIFML converter in to MIF-as-XML. I then used XSLT to create SVG.

But: SVG has no real support for text frames, just text lines. Also, as far as 
I remember, I stopped creating a converter for Arc objects, because the graphic 
model is very different between FrameMaker (where you can rotate any object as 
you like) and SVG.

So, yes, it is possible with some limitations.
