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

Set-up dialog Import FrameMaker Template options

 

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.
