Jim,

It isn't clear from your message if you converted the file to RTF and opened that or you're still mucking around with the original PDF.

If you are still in the PDF... you can't really work with it. Save as RTF and go on.

If you created a RTF from the PDF and have opened that, things probably look odd because it's likely that whatever program was used to create the original didn't use the same settings as FM is attempting to use. Also, it's possible that you don't have the fonts that were originally used on your system.

To fix things, you probably still need to impose a layout and paragraph tags to set the correct fonts and formatting. If you have an existing FM template already set up to your standards, that would be the easiest way to go.
