I figure anyone who owns a copy of FrameMaker 7 and MIF2Go has
adequate technical chops to deal with continuing to use them in

I typically have 10-15 applications running and if I come close to
using 4GB it's a sign that one of my apps (usually Firefox) has a
memory leak. As I noted earlier, I ran 64-bit Windows at work for a
year and a half and performance was indistinguishable from my 32-bit

You might evaluate migrating to Flare, its Word export and import are
significantly better than FrameMaker's, and its FrameMaker import is

Second on MIF2Go. It can be a challenge to configure the first time
but the output is far superior to FM's native export and you have a
lot more control. Here are the settings from a mif2htm.ini file that
worked for me:
