[Framers] Transfer from FrameMaker into Word

[Lin Sims]

Depends on whether the people doing the maintenance have any real Word
experience, I guess. Converting from PDF to Word will give you a Word
document that looks like the PDF, all right, but there will be no styles.
EVERYTHING will be Normal + whatever.

If they do all their formatting on the fly, they may not care (until they
have to fix numbering or something).

If they know how to use styles and want to, you'll have to create a Word
template and test it, export from Frame to RTF, attach the Word template
and update the styles, then scan through each doc and make sure the import
and style applications worked.

Good luck.
