InDesign to FrameMaker 9.0 for Windows 7

[Alan Litchfield]

No, not really. Just that the software designers have not thought much 
past their immediate brief.

They are both end-of-production-process applications and the output from 
them is considered to be what will be required for output purposes not 
for further post-processing by other programs that effectively do the 
same thing.

I have not weighed in because everyone has pretty much echoed my 
suggestions and thoughts about conversion and my choice would have been 
either RTF or PDF (extracting the content from a PDF). However, what 
would be required to get an IDML file into Frame? I have not looked at it.
