I need to import an enormous tagged Word document into InDesign for formatting and layout (see sample below) - I've tried every possible way and keep getting the following once placed... @ADDRESS = 17 State Street @ADDRESS = New York, NY 10004 @ADDRESS = 212/806-6819 @ADDRESS = Fax: 212/838-5846 @WEB = Website: <http://www.nappco-ny.com> @CONTACT_1 = Contact: @CONTACT_2 = Steve Van Voorhis, @CONTACT_3 = Vice President @LISTING_TEXT = <$Izzz;Abandoned Property Compliance and Processing;NAPPCO, The National Abandoned Property Processing Corporation;NAPPCO.doc> Is there a way that the above text/file can be imported either (a) without the tags or (b) once imported, have them removed in InDesign... The program Venture 10 was used last year and imports everything from Word (styles, etc.) and without tags... It would save a lot of time if I didn't have to reapply the styles or reformat everything - this is a 400+ page directory... :-( Do I need to purchase a separate program to do this, such as Smart Catalog or InCatalog? Thanks!
