Frame has a well defined interchange format called MIF (Maker
Interchange Format). It is an ASCII format and described in the manual.
You will never get the binary format from Frame, this is always
regarded as top secret by the manufacturer. We have used MIF to write a
converter from Frame lay out to our Oce 6750 laserprinter and we found
it easy to use. The logical information is also in MIF.
