Frame xml to sgml conversion

Doh, why didn't I think of Mif2Go! Thanks David.

Yes, any xml that translates into XMetal "should" do the same for
Arbortext. Is there anyone with experience bringing a M2G xml file into
Arbortext?

Darren,
You might take a look at Mif2Go for the FM -> XML conversion step. It
has
built-in support for DocBook and DITA. I have used it for DITA
conversion.
The XML imported fine into XMetal. I would expect the same with an
import
into Arbortext.

Hello FrameManiacs,

We use Arbortext for sgml authoring. Due to differences in DTDs, using
structured FM for this is not an option for us. We have a need to
convert unstructured FM into XML that can be morphed-up to sgml either
by technique or application(s).
I'm curious to know what tools and/or techniques are being used to
accomplish FrameMaker *.xml files to sgml (non-Frame).

Thanxs,
DJ
