That's what I thought. But it wasn't an option when I checked. However, 
like Apple, I use FrameMaker 6.0. Just checked FrameMaker 7.0 and, sure 
enough, Word is a save-as option. So, yes, FrameMaker->Word->Pages is 
another route. As you say, it should retain more info, but I've read 
some unfavorable reports about Pages' Word import/export ability on 
Apple's forums, so your milage may vary.
