4.2.1.1 Specifying an RTF output format

You can specify one of two types of RTF output (for print or for on-line help), or you can choose to produce only MIF files. Standard (print RTF) is the default:

Standard	Word 7/95, Word 8/97, WordPerfect (default is Word 8/97)
Help	WinHelp 3, WinHelp 4/95 (default is WinHelp 4/95)
FrameMIF	FrameMaker MIF (Maker Interchange Format)

Specify this setting in the mif2rtf.ini configuration file:

[Options]

; Output = Standard (default, Word RTF), Help (WinHelp), or FrameMIF

Output=Standard

If you specify Output=Standard, the default output format is Word 7/95. You must specify additional options for other print RTF formats:

• For Word 8/97 or later versions of Word, also specify the following option:

[Options]

; Word8 = No (default, Word7/Office95, earlier) or Yes (Office97)

Word8=Yes

See §5.2.5 Adjusting for different versions of Word.

• For WordPerfect, also specify the following option:

[Options]

; WordPerfect = Yes to override all features WP does not tolerate

WordPerfect=Yes

See §5.2.3 Specifying output type and file extension.

If you specify Output=Help, the default output format is WinHelp 4. You must specify an additional option for a different WinHelp version:

• For WinHelp 3, also specify the following option:

[HelpOptions]

; HelpVersion = 3 for Win 3.1 compatible or 4 for Win 95/NT

HelpVersion=3

See §7.1.5 Accommodating platform differences.

If you specify Output=FrameMIF, Mif2Go produces only FrameMaker MIF files from your FrameMaker document, and does not convert them to another format. See §4.2.1.3 Specifying MIF or DCL as the output format.
