Funny.

No not your response, but the way I reached out here before even considering
heading to the Tech Support for the product.

And yes, I do need to sit down and read the help, alas the consultants who
are sitting on my desk don't really have the time for me to do that,
especially as I'm still "evaluating" MIF2GO (although I'm tempted to publish
the output spackled with Jabberwocky... Just to see if anyone reads it!

Thanks to all, will have another play today,

Gordon

I would just like to  clarify something, MIF2Go is the only technical
writing product I work with that has real customer support, that is why you
see so few MIF2GO questions on the lists, and you can write directly to them
to get the quick tip you need.
You just need the patience to sit down and read the help/User guide.

I've been playing with the Mif2Go product this morning as I have a
requirement to produce "editable" versions of part of the product docs set.
Having laughed off FMs "Save As" feature (which generated a 51MB .RTF
file!!), I've tried converting a PDF to Word, which places all the text
within frames in the Word doc, and then recalled discussions here about
Mif2Go.
 
It's far better than the other options but it's still not all that great,
the bulk of the text is fine but any images which have callouts just get
borked. 
 
So, I guess I'm asking for any suggestions or tips in improving the Mif2Go
output. I'm trawling through their help file at the moment but, as ever, I'm
sure someone out there has some top tips?
