If you import the content from FrameMaker, you then format/chunk and
then maintain the content in AuthorIt. Otherwise, you have to keep
reimporting it and refutzing with it. Else, you have to synchronize
your AuthorIt content with your FrameMaker content and update both.
IOW, if you have RH or AuthorIt, it pays to manage your content within
those products. Otherwise, you might as well use WWP and save yourself
a good deal of effort.
