The import FrameMaker tool imports Maker Interchange Format
(MIF) file. Objects are created in the current module and are populated
with the contents of the file.
Before you begin
If the file that you want to import was created by an export
from a Rational® DOORS® module, you must first open
and save it in an application that can read MIF files, for example
FrameMaker.
About this task
When you import a MIF file you map styles in the file
to Rational DOORS features. You can save the file mapping
to use again.
- The FrameMaker importer only imports text from Text Flow A.
- You can map styles that contain text that you do not want to import

the FramePicture attribute in Rational DOORS.
- International data is imported using encoding that is supported

is pasted as the letter w.
