Can anyone tell me if there is any technique, method, software, or incantation 
which will allow one to extract the text and text styles (fonts, italics, 
paragraph indents, etc.) from a PageMaker document.

I need something that will allow me to easily change the text in a catalog I 
update every other year.  Changing the text will involve modifying fonts, 
adding and deleting text content, etc.  I know style are an option; but they 
appear to be more trouble than they are worth considering the initial text 
started out already speced and formatted in MSWord.

Any ideas are appreciated.
