I have a template with a series of built in variables that have generic content
until used in a specific document.

There is no direct conversion of ID to Frame. (There is a Frame to ID
conversion, however.)
If you get all the ID documents at once, do a trail subscription to the
Cloud (if your security allows) and use ID CC for 30 days. You can subscribe
month-to-month for $30 or for a year at $20/month if you
