Hello,

One of our clients is providing us with several thousand documents in FrameMaker 7 format. We do not use FrameMaker so no-one in our organization can open these files. Rather than buying a FrameMaker license for 20 people who will only use it to view the files, I'd much rather use a viewer or batch convert the files to something we can use (like PDF).

I found references to a FrameViewer but no place to actually download it. I wouldn't mid picking up a copy of frameMaker to convert the fm files to pdf, but i have not found abatch convert feature and I don't feel like manually converting 8000+ files one file at a time.

Any ideas would be appriciated,

W
