We had a few thousand static pages (self contained directories with pages, images, css, js etc.) that we decided to import in bulk into the dms. These pages had their own design and was not designed to fit in with the rest of our site design, and existed as such on our old site. Editors continue to use DreamWeaver to update/edit these pages, and then just replace the file in the dms.
This approach will work only for a specific set of requirements. The rest of the pages on our site were driven by data from a database, that we imported into our own workspace and drive our current redesigned site off.

I don't think the import feature is designed for this sort of process. Is the only way to manually create new pages from scratch? Quite an issue for us as we're considering migrating our current intranet, over 7,500 pages, from our current CMS into Magnolia. Has anyone had any experience with this, it must be a fairly common problem. Any advice most welcome.
