SOLVED (sort of) Powerpoint to FrameMaker

Here's what I've come up with.
I save the Powerpoint file as a PDF, then use Able2Doc to convert the PDF to Word. (I've found I get a very clean conversion after using Able2Doc.)
I imported the resulting Word file into FrameMaker. Text and graphics are imported cleanly.
There's still a lot of manual cleanup but I think it's better than Cut-and-Paste.
Thanks for the suggestions!
