Frame has import from Word. It actually works. If you have styles in Word, it is really good. You have to save the file as..doc >From Frame file menu Choose import file, as copy
Then the first time there is a settings box You need to map Word styles to Frame files and then import. It works well. Once you make a settings file that you are pleased with, save it and reuse it each time. However, it did not cope with my 300 plus page book, so I had to make smaller word files from it. However, for graphics use the tip about docx, right click on your docx fike and choose unzip. You will get a folder of graphics. There are a few good tutorials on the internet for this. It takes quite a while, especially if there are many graphics. I have precise notes in the office, but am not currently there.
