need to collaborate with a Word guru

[Matt Sullivan]

Hi Carol, perhaps you'd be well-advised to break up the two functions and parcel the work out separately.

I've created many effective Word templates that work properly when imported into FrameMaker…it's really more of a function of the style names than the physical attributes of the Word DOT.

Once you have the "proper clean slate" as a DOCX, you can then format as necessary within Word itself.

Of course, the less formatting on the Word side, the better, but perhaps that's better than waiting for someone who "likes" both Fm and Word...

I have figured out how to set up the Word numbering styles, but this is a Framemaker list and it is not appropriate to discuss that here. But that was only one of several Word-to-Frame issues I wanted to address with whatever Word expert I hired. Still looking.
