3.6 Converting documents

After setting up a conversion project, follow these steps to convert a FrameMaker document:

1. Select a document. In FrameMaker, select a document to convert. To convert all the files in a book, select the book file. Even if a few files in the book do not need converting, this is usually faster than converting each file separately.

2. Choose a conversion project. On the FrameMaker File menu, choose Save Using Mif2Go... The Choose Project dialog opens (see Figure 3-1). If the project in the Name field is not the one you want, select another project from the list. Click OK to dismiss the dialog.

3. Choose export options. When you dismiss the Choose Project dialog, the Mif2Go Export dialog opens (see Figure 3-5). For information about export options, see §3.7 Choosing final conversion options.

4. Start the conversion. Click OK in the Mif2Go Export dialog to start converting documents.

During conversion, Mif2Go displays progress messages in the status bar at the bottom of the book or file window.
