I am currently busy reviewing the software we use for our technical
manuals. It seems that Framemaker 7 is the best.  What I need to do is
import files out of Powerpoint and Word into Framemaker.  The
Powerpoint files seem to cause me the most hastle.

I take the Powerpoint files and send them to Word, slides with notes
below.  Then I import the Word doc into Framemaker.  This is ok, but I
need to have the slide pictures of better quality. So by copying them
one by one out of Powerpoint and doing a paste special in Framemaker
it gives me better results. Only thing is I would like to import it
into a master doc in Framemaker so the frame for the slide and the
notes are already defined and styled.

Is there a better or quicker way to do this?  

Please help
Tanya
