An old client is asking about my interest in converting several product
manuals from PageMaker to Microsoft Word. Searching on "PageMaker Word
convert" produces nothing useful, and from what I can gather from my
Googling, the PageMaker files need to be exported as RTF files, and the
graphics need to be reinserted into the Word document after it is created
from the RTFs. The manuals are not more than 100 pages each or thereabouts.

Is making RTFs the way to go with this?
