   I agree! Notepad++ Is the best free text editor around.

     Windows 7 Enterprise operating system
     FrameMaker 2015 Release (13.0.5.547) installed on workstation
     FrameMaker source and inset files are on a server on our local area
     network
     ==========
     Help, please, even if only to tell me that I'm "holding my mouth
     wrong."
     With [BookName].book open, on the menu bar, I choose File | Save
     Book As... > MIF 2015 (.mif). The program saves the .book file as
     [BookName].mif.
     Through Windows Explorer, I open [BookName].mif with Notepad, delete
     various and sundry cruft such bad color definitions, old character
     tags, and old conditional text tags.
     I save [BookName].mif and exit Notepad.
     Through Windows Explorer, I try to open [BookName].mif with
     FrameMaker 2015, which displays the "Unknown file type" window.
     In the "Unknown file type" window, there are numerous types of file
     listed. "MIF" is among the choices, but .fm is not.
     When I choose "MIF" and the "Convert" button, the program complains
     that "The filter encountered an error and could not complete the
     translation."
     ¿Am I the only one who has experienced this?
     Thanks,
     Dave Stamm
     Information Engineer.
