Is it possible to convert a PageMaker file into a Word file? If so, how?

Thank you.

You can convert a PM file in a MIF file (the export format for PM).

Sorry, not this way Feb 20, 2004

MIF is in no way standard export from Pagemaker. MIF is used by Framemaker.
You can though export stories form PM in RTF.
You need to select the text tool, clik into the text you want to get exported and then select export - text from the file menu.

Kind regards
Jerzy

Hi! Generate a .pdf from a pagemaker file and reconvert .pdf file using pdf2txt ( watchout you´ll not get the graphics), it will then be a .txt file and process with word.
