6.5.9.6 Converting alternate running headers and footers

Your FrameMaker document might use Running H/F variables that have alternate values, with definitions such as the following:

<$paratext[SectTitle,ChapTitle,AppxTitle]>

Word does not support alternate text for headers and footers, so Mif2Go uses the only the first format encountered in the definition. However, you can achieve the same effect in Word by directing Mif2Go to map all the formats to the same Word style. For example:

[Styles]

SectTitle=Title

[StyleReplacements]

ChapTitle=Title

AppxTitle=Title

The result is {STYLEREF Title} in Word. The mapping changes the style name, but not the format properties. If the format properties are different, ChapTitle and AppxTitle items would keep their FrameMaker properties as overrides, unless you were to apply a Word template to remove them. You can replace as many formats as you please this way.
