Re: Converting FrameMaker and Interleaf Files into SGML

[Michael LaTorra <mikel -at- HUEY -dot- ACCUGRAPH -dot- COM>]

Harold Henke asked about the possible existence of a tool for
doing conversions to SGML from FrameMaker or Interleaf.

In the case of Frame, there is a product from Frame Technology
called SGML Toolkit, which includes SGML Utilities for doing
such conversions.  Unfortunately, at this time SGML Toolkit
is only available for the Sun running OS4.

I can't speak to the question of how well SGML Toolkit
works, since I've been waiting for the HP version for many
moons now.

Checking my SGML files, I find there is also a product called
Rainbow, from Electronic Book Technologies.  They claim to
"ease the transition from proprietary word processor data to SGML".
For more info about Rainbow, phone (401) 421-9550 or e-mail to
kjs -at- ebt -dot- com

Good luck!  And please let us know if you find a solution that
the rest of us might benefit from.


Live long & prosper,
