Just to note: If mif2rtf ever becomes available under the MacOS, I'll have occasion to consider it. The same was true the first time I did such an evaluation, in 1994-1995. And the whole issue of Frame conversion and appropriate tools depends primarily on the purposes of the conversion: * Frame to WinHelp * Frame to AppleGuide * Frame to HTML-based help * Frame to intranet web site as HTML or PDF * Frame to Internet web site as HTML or PDF * Frame to CD-ROM publishing as HTML or PDF * Frame to PDF for delivery to print vendors * all of the above (single-sourcing) If one conversion program can ever be all things to all users, it will resemble IBM's mainframe application programs of the 1960s. To quote a retired engineer-programmer: "They were so powerful you could do ANYthing with them, and they were so complex it took a year to learn to do ANYTHING with them."
