FrameMaker is the only tool that can legally read/write
binary .fm files, thanks to Adobe's license restrictions.

One simple way to accomplish something close to this is to
rename the .mif files to .fm.  Frame doesn't care; when you
open one, it opens normally, and when you save it, it saves 
as .fm binary over the .mif.

HTH!
