I have Frame Maker version 7.0p492 Structure running in Windows 2000 SP4

I have received several files from another company in SGML that were done in "Epic Editor" and I need to open them in Frame Maker. I have had some success opening them.

When I try to open the file the SGML read report log states:
<file path & name> Length of name, number, or token exceeded the NAMELEN limit.

<file path & name> Could not find external document type <document name> Then it lists a path which looks to be where the DTD was in the file's original environment.

When I attempt to open the DTD, I get 14 pages of error messages of various sorts.

My question is two-fold. What am I doing wrong in Frame Maker concerning the process of opening an SGML file, and two, how could an SGML file that was supposedly correct when it was done in Epic Editor now cause so many errors in Frame Maker?
