Mif2Go User's Guide: C.1 Locating document and conversion files

C.1 Locating document and conversion files

When you use Mif2Go to convert a FrameMaker document, you can specify a project folder for converted and generated document files (see §2.6 Establishing a conversion environment). By default, Mif2Go places output files in the input folder: the folder where your FrameMaker document is located. If you accept the default, the project folder for your conversion is the same as the input folder. Table C-1 shows what document files are in which folder.

Table C-1 Location of document files

Folder	File name	Description
Input	MyDoc.book & .fm or MyDoc*.fm	Your original FrameMaker document
Project	MyDoc.rtf or MyDoc.htm, etc.	Converted and generated document file(s), in the output format you specify
Project	MyDoc.mif (& *.mif)	Your FrameMaker document in MIF format (unless you instruct Mif2Go to delete MIF files)

Mif2Go also creates several conversion files, and places some in the input folder, some in the project folder. Table C-2 lists the basic conversion files in each folder. For more information see §C.2 Identifying conversion files.

Table C-2 Location of conversion files

Folder	File name	Description
Input	MyDoc.prj	Project information Mif2Go creates for your FrameMaker document
Input	mif2go.ini	List of FileIDs assigned to the files Mif2Go generates from your FrameMaker document (not produced if you select FrameMIF as the output format)
Project	m2g_log.txt	Conversion event log (optional)
	mif2rtf.ini or mif2htm.ini	Configuration file containing the settings that produce the output file(s); put there by Mif2Go if you convert via FrameMaker, or by you (or a script you provide) if you convert via command line
	*.grx	Graphics information entries for each file in your document that contains graphics which you direct Mif2Go to export via FrameMaker filters--even if you check Do not write graphics in the Export dialog
	*.ref	Cross-reference entries for each file in your document (HTML only)

You might find other conversion files in the project folder as well, depending on the type of output you specify and the conversion options you select. See §C.2.3 Additional conversion files.
