I don't have any way of knowing what fonts your translator has, but yes, when you open the .rtf in FM, it is "converted" to an FM file. All you need to do is save it as a Frame file. It's the standard way most shops convert their Word files to FM; unless you're doing something unique with your scripts, there isn't a reason to take the intermediate step of converting to a .MIF file.

If, when you first opened it, you received a "missing font" message in the FM console, then you may have to reconcile fonts. But all other things being equal, there may not be a problem.

However, because you can open the .rtf directly and successfully from FM, I think you demonstrated that your conversion process is likely to be the culprit, not FM.
