importing HTML into FrameMaker?

[Maxwell Hoffmann]

Robert,

If you or an associate have access to RoboHelp, you can open and save the HTML in RoboHelp, which saves it to XHTML. A slight modification to a structured FrameMaker app will open the XHTML as XML. Elements can be mapped to paragraph styles that match your existing unstructured FrameMaker document. Then you save the *.xml file as unstructured FrameMaker.

I had a larger project that involved converting 400 Eclipse Help files from Dreamweaver into unstructured FrameMaker and this worked beautifully. You may find a simpler solution if you are not working with very much structure.

Subject: importing HTML into FrameMaker?

I occasionally need to take content from a MindTouch wiki and add it to a FrameMaker doc. The wiki source is very basic HTML: h2, h3, p, strong, ul, ol, tables, that's about it.

Is there a tool that will convert HTML to FrameMaker or MIF? Sort of the reverse of RoboHelp / WebWorks / MIF2Go?

I have FrameScript.
