I exported some Frame 7 files out as HTML and converted to basic ePub using Calibre (donation-ware) for a client. I also tuned up the ePub in Sigil. As long as your formatting needs are basic, it worked OK.
Another option is to save as RTF and use Calibre or import into InDesign. If you show import options when placing the RTF file, you can include graphics. By the way, InDesign 5.5 is a must-have upgrade for ePubs. David Creamer IDEAS Training Can anyone point me to a good reference on the path from Frame 8.0 to ePub? I work for a small publisher, and about half of our (print) books are in FM8. In the last year we have migrated all new projects to InDesign, mostly because most of our contract book designers work in InDesign and we needed to be consistent with what they were doing. We have 8 to 10 books in FM8 that I need to migrate to ePub, ideally with as little cost as possible. After this conversion, we won't be using FrameMaker much anymore, so I don't want to invest any more than needed. So. some questions: --Do I need to upgrade to a more current version of Frame to do this? --Is there an intermediary piece of software I need to buy? --Can anyone recommend a good reference (web site, book, etc.) describing how to convert Frame documents to ePub? _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.
