Can you try the heroic open approach? In FM, create new empty file (you have to file a blank file open to use this command), then press, one after another Esc o H. In the File Open dialog box, select the bad file. If it opens, immediately save it as a .mif.

Hi - I have corrupt FrameMaker 10 file. The backup is also corrupt, as is the offsite backup. None will open. I've tried Open Heroic and Wash Via MIF. No luck. I have a version that's 3 weeks old but I'd really like to get at the material in the corrupted file. Any ideas?
