IXgen question

Dear Framers,

I've never used IXgen, and need to know whether it would solve a need
that I may have come up. 
Background:
New FrameMaker book created from legacy PDF-to-ASCII-to-FrameMaker. All
new Frame template, new screen captures, textual changes, major layout
changes. BUT the ASCII export does not give me the index markers, and
the first version of the new book will go without an index. 
Now it seems that I may get the legacy FrameMaker files AFTER all the
conversion work is done. 

Can IXgen...
...strip the index markers from one book of FrameMaker files? 
and
...insert them into a parallel structured but differently named set of
Frame files?

AND
if it will, how much time will it take a NON-coding technical writer of
considerable experience to learn IXgen well enough to do that?


Just so I know what my options are.
