How to Save to RTF or Word Format?

I'm just getting started with Framemaker.  I'm trying to figure out how to save an existing Framemaker book to an RTF or Word compatible format.  The Framemaker 9 User Guide says it's an option on the SaveAs command, but RTF isn't one of the available options I see.  Am I missing an add-on module to support this file format perhaps?  Or am I just looking in the wrong place?

    You can't save a while .book file as .rtf, only an individual .fm file. Second the recommendation of MIF2Go if you're not happy with the results.

    Saving as RTF is usually at the bottom of the dropdown list:

    [Ignore the red circle - recylced screen capture - more or less the same as in FM9]

    However, the RTF from FM's filters isn't all that stellar in moving FM docuemtns to Word format. The Mif2go tool fom Omni Systems is highly recommended for excellent conversions. See: http://www.omsys.com/dcl/mif2go_main.htm
