With the exceptions of the glyphs Fred mentioned (they're included in the
typeface we use at work), I wound up creating a load of variables with the
fractions pre-set up because we use a fair number of Imperial measurements
in our documents and it got to be a pain using the character map to insert
If you look in the Windows Character Map tool, you will find the characters ⅓,
⅔, ⅛, ⅜, ⅝, and ⅞ at Unicode code points 0x2153, 0x2154, and 0x215B thru 0x215E
in most fonts (I was looking at Arial). Other fonts, such as Cambria Math,
have additional glyphs for proper fractions with 5 and 6 in
I use Klaus Daube's ETB (love it!) and it has fraction symbols for 1/4,
1/2, and 3/4. Is there another handy source for additional fraction
symbols?
Thanks!
Doug

There is! It's not automated as part of the import, though. After you
import, you open the File > Utilities menu and use the Split Current
Document. Then you have to choose which tag is used to signal the start of
a new file.

I do not have the new Frame 2020, but they say there is a new feature that
will allow you to split the imported Word doc into separate Frame files

If you used styles in your Word document and have tags set up in a Frame
template, the easiest way is to open a new Frame document based on your
Frame template and use File > Import > File, Import by Copy. That will open
the Word Import dialog that allows you to map Word styles to Framemaker
tags.
Hi, what is the best way to convert from MSWord docx to FM 19? Thanks.
