Hi Rich, You can use FrameMaker as your source files. You'll need to go through ePublisher Pro or MIF2GO to get the output you want. It's non-trivial (read, "a huge PITA") to get everything working, but it can be done.

If you decide you want professional help (hmmm...that sounds bad), give us a call.
