### C.2.1 Conversion files created during set-up

The first time you set up a conversion project for a particular FrameMaker document, Mif2Go creates for that document three conversion files:

• a document-specific project file

• a document-specific FileID file

• an output-specific starting project configuration file:

Conversion file | Default file name | File contents
Project | MyDoc.prj | Information Mif2Go collects about conversion-project names, types, paths, and states.
FileID | mif2go.ini | Output-file identifiers called FileIDs, mapped to the names of your FrameMaker files; Mif2Go assigns these identifiers.
Configuration | _m2 output.ini | Settings and options that dictate how your document will be converted.
_m2 output_html.ini or _m2 output_word.ini | Settings that are specific to this document.

Mif2Go places the project file and the FileID file in the same directory as your FrameMaker document, and places the starting project configuration file in the project directory.

Before Mif2Go set-up: | After Mif2Go set-up:
Input directory | Project directory | Input directory | Project directory
MyDoc.book |  | MyDoc.book | _m2 output.ini
Chapter1.fm |  | Chapter1.fm |
... |  | ... |
ChapterN.fm |  | ChapterN.fm |
|  | MyDoc.prj |
|  | mif2go.ini |

Project file and FileID file

If you run Mif2Go from within FrameMaker, the project and FileID files are created when you click Set Up Mif2Go Export... on the FrameMaker File menu:

MyDoc.prj | Project file for conversions from MyDoc.book (or MyDoc.fm)
mif2go.ini | FileID file for conversions from MyDoc.book (or MyDoc.fm)

See §C.3 Renaming or relocating the Mif2Go project file for more information about these two conversion files.

Configuration file

Mif2Go places the starting project configuration file in the project directory. If you run Mif2Go from within FrameMaker, the project directory is the location you specify via the Choose Project Browse button (...). The configuration file is one of those listed in Table 30-5. Mif2Go also places a document-specific configuration file in subdirectory _config, parallel to the project directory. This file contains settings that apply only to the particular FrameMaker document you are converting. See §30.3 Including document-specific configuration files.
