3.4.1 Importing formats from a FrameMaker template

To import formats from a FrameMaker conversion template, check Import FrameMaker Template (or Import FM Help Template) in the Set Up dialog as shown in Figure 3-2, and browse to the location of the template file.

Figure 3-2 Import FrameMaker Template

 

Mif2Go Set Up dialogs provide checkboxes for all the same properties as the FrameMaker Import Formats dialog. Some cautions:

• If you specify a template file, but you do not check any properties, all properties except Document properties are imported, and overrides and page breaks are removed.

• Best not to check Doc Props (document properties); a defect in FrameMaker can cause unexpected changes to document settings.

• The Comb fonts option stands for “combined Japanese/English fonts”. Although Mif2Go supports Japanese on FrameMaker version 8 and later versions, checking this option can cause “template failure” on non-Japanese systems. If this happens, Mif2Go tries the template import again, without the Comb fonts option.
