You may want to consider PDF for a visual representation of the files and MIF (Maker Interchange Format) for a text-based representation of the content. MIF is would mainly be useful for recovering the content in FrameMaker in the future if you needed to. Convert the files to MIF, archive them, and uninstall FrameMaker.
