[framescript-users] RE: Word to Frame hyperlink weirdness

[Keith Soltys]

I'm using FrameMaker 10. I didn't think to try the Japanese RTF import filter. Maybe I'll do that the next time I have to do this.

I've cross-posted this to the FrameMaker list where it should have gone in the first place.

Regards
Keith

The Import dialog gives you two options. Import by Reference results in a text inset. Copy into Document pastes the contents of the Word doc (after filtering) into the FM doc.

The best way to get a Word doc into FM depends on the Word doc, the phase of the moon, and who knows what else, so it's best to experiment. IIRC, it's been suggested that the RTF Japanese filter is from a different company and works better (even for English) than the regular Word or RTF filters.

Keith's message (which I don't think appeared on FrameUsers) doesn't mention the FM version. For older versions of FM and newer versions of Word, you need to save the Word doc as RTF or as a Word 97-2003 doc, and that would be worth experimenting with even in FM 9/10.
