Shmuel has nailed the detail for you: saving out of PDF gets you almost nothing, because you are interposing a massively different format (PDF) when you don't need to (Frame -> RTF). With that route your biggest task is likely to be sorting out inserted images, if there are any. 'convert... into Word so others can maintain after I'm gone' is as familiar as it is disturbing: I have been reading the same thing for more than two decades. Assuming that you are meticulous in creating your ex-FrameMaker output, your soon-to-be-ex colleagues will need an unusually high level of Word skills to maintain your documents in their current state. My own experience has suggested that this is almost never the case. By heck, if you're well out of it, should you care? -- Steve _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected]
