31.2.3.1 Understanding how embedded graphics are exported

Mif2Go uses an internal graphic export process to create external files from graphics embedded in your FrameMaker document, provided those graphics do not include, in the same anchored frame, other elements such as callouts, titles, or additional images. You get the original format at its full original resolution. You do not get the original name, because FrameMaker discards the original name when the image is embedded; there is no way to recover that name. Therefore, Mif2Go assigns a computed name to each exported file; see §5.7.4.2 Naming files produced from embedded graphics.

If an image to be exported is not alone in its anchored frame, Mif2Go must use FrameMaker export filters instead; see §31.2.5 Converting graphics with FrameMaker export filters. In that case, callouts, montages, and so forth, are retained, but the resolution is generally much worse than the resolution of the original image.
