Stevejs,

What exactly isn't happening? Using the File > Import > File for
another FM file gives you two choices. Import by Reference, which
creates a text inset OR import by Copy, which inserts all of the
contents *in a specific flow* into your FM document. Further, you are
given a choice of using either the current documents formatting or to
retain the formatting from the imported document.

The key point is that FM only imports a single flow at a time from
another FM document. So, if you have multiple flows on the same
physical page, you won't get an exact physical match to the page that
you're importing. If you need page fidelity, then treat the imported
document as a graphic, i.e. create a PDF and import that.
