Re: Frame to Word

[Chuck Banks <chuck -at- ASL -dot- DL -dot- NEC -dot- COM>]

Hi, Cathy!

        We use FrameMaker on Sun workstations and export documents
from FrameMaker 4.0 (UNIX version) to Word for Windows 6.0 using
RTF as the intermediary file format.  We use the filters supplied
with FrameMaker to convert the files.  We're happy with the results,
except where graphics are concerned.

        Graphics created in or imported into FrameMaker do not
transfer in RTF.  Text and Tables do transfer, but graphics do not.
My advice, if you decide to use FrameMaker, create your graphics
with a third package that can save your work in file formats
acceptable to FrameMaker and to MS Word (TIFF or BMP, for example).

        So you can see for yourself some of the results, after this
message, I'm including a small RTF file.  It contains two levels of
titles, some bulleted text, and one graphic and one table.  Just
save this message to a text file, strip off everything above the
line of equal signs, also delete the line of equal signs, save the
result as a text file, and open the resulting text file with
MS Word.  You should see the text and the table, but no graphic.

        If you want to see the printed FrameMaker file, send me a
fax number, and I'll forward you a copy.

Best Regards!

Chuck Banks

\par
\pard\plain\s1\f13\fs24 \sa280 The Model 20 ATM switch, shown in Fig.
3-1
, comprises hardware and software configurations
designed to meet a wide range of broadband switching applications and
networking requirements.
Model 20 can be deployed in the public network as a local node, tandem node,
or Interexchange
Carrier (IXC) node. Model 20 can be deployed, as well, in private network
environments. Fig.
3-

 shows a typical network configuration. All the switching systems interconnect
via Optical Car
rier Level 3 (OC3) ATM Network Node Interfaces (NNI). A single Network
Management System
(NMS) [such as the NEC Broadband Network Management System (BNMS)],
connected to a sin
gle Model 20, manages the entire network via a Common Management Information
Protocol
(CMIP) interface.
\par
\pard\plain\s18\f12\fs20\i\f12\i \qj\li499\sa240\sl-240\tx1221 {NOTE:\tab
}To ensure network reliability, NEC recommends using a fault-tolerant NMS
 such as t
he NEC BNMS


nd connecting the NMS to two Model 20 systems in the network.
