The Word file I inherited does not use any formatting standard, it's just a 193 pages of mish mash of whatever any given editor felt like doing at the time. I'm probably going to have to go to text then into Frame and manually assign the formatting. YUCK :-)

That's exactly the approach I took when I converted nearly 10k pages of docs from Word (Word 95 in those days) to Frame for a former, former employer. We had pretty good compliance to the old Word template because we had been using a complex, scripted conversion to Windows Help, so the conversion actually went pretty well except for cases of missing graphics source files. (I still curse the memory of writers who pasted graphics directly into Word.) The Frame templates I imported into were set up to be semi-structured (tags to reflect structural function rather than appearance) to facilitate further migration to XML. But that migration never happened because the parent company sold off our division and shipped the products and docs off to teams in India. -FR ________________________________ From: Framers <framers-bounces+docudoc=hotmail....@lists.frameusers.com> on behalf of Ben Anderson <ben.ander...@abrigo.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 15, 2020 12:19 PM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. <framers@lists.frameusers.com> Subject: Re: [Framers] Book and Doc Templates. Hi Rick, I haven't used any templates, but what I have done is renamed the para tags and any character tags in the word doc to match what I have in frame (i.e., Heading 1 to Heading One) and then imported the doc file into frame. It seems to work pretty well. The only thing is, you'll have to go back make separate files/chapters, and you'll have some minor para/character clean up. And you'll need to re-import the graphics. Hope that helps.

Hello Everyone, I am converting a 193 page Word doc to FrameMaker 2017. Does anyone have recommended templates for doing this. I am trying to do this in as little time as possible. If you can share what you have great, if you are selling what you have great also, just let me know what you need. Thank you all for your help.
