You might want to mention the price you have in
mind. We don't even look at tools that don't
have prices on their Web site. Red flag. <g>

Or, if you want to use the tool chosen by 26% of
FrameMaker users for this (per a recent impartial
poll), check out Mif2Go:

We've always recommended Scott's DITA-FMx for those
who plan to continue editing in Frame. However,
for the conversion itself, we've been fine-tuning
for several years, with the help of DITA-TC members
who are using it for major conversion projects at
their Fortune 50 companies... ;-) So we're a tad
ahead in this area. Check out both, and decide
for yourself.
