When I've ported manuals from WfW6 to PM6, I've selected large chunks of
text, exported them as .RTFs, then placed them into my PM6 pub. For
graphics, I just take the time to manually re-place everything. When I'm
making a user manual in PM6, it's largely because I want the fine control
over textblock and graphic placement, so the extra manual work is worthwhile.
