If it's that little content I would bring it in as plain text and
reformat as you go. It wouldn't be the trendy way to do it but you
would probably spend less time doing it that way than messing with
EDDs.

I am not familiar at all with structured Frame. So my question is, how easy is it to import a DocBook file into FM, and what would it require to achieve that nicely ? Also, is it mandatory to use structured FM for doing so ? And if yes, how much work would it be to turn an unstructured "light" FM document (3 chapters, about 75 pages) into a structured one ?
