R: FrameScript/ script to convert mif>fm - Solved

[Anton David]

 Dear Framers,

Many thanks for all people who kindly asnwered to my query.
I followed the advise of David Spreadbury : just renamed the file from .mif
to .fm and opened them in FrameMaker, then used the command Save all open
files and saved them as .fm. The rest is just clicking OK and Overwrite to
Save the file. Make sure you set the mouse cursor to automatically go to the
predefined button (in Control Pnale > Mouse).

Anton,
I just experimented with a few Frame files, saved out as mif. I renamed the
mif to fm and opened them in Frame, without issues. Depending on how many
mif files you want to save as Frame, you can either do it manually or get
one of many freeware file renaming tools to rename your mif to fm.

Hello David,

I know that I can open the mif file in Frame. But for each file, I have to
do a Save As and then choose FM as file type, and possibly change also the
extension from mif to fm.
