Unable to convert a structure FM (11) file to RTF

When converting a structured FM 11 file to RTF, FM freezes for a while, and when it's working again, the output is either a corrupted .rtf file, or FM crashes. The file we are trying to convert is over 200 pages long and has several images linked.

Is there a way to convert the FM file to RTF and maintain some formatting? We have tried saving the file by extracting it from the PDF, but the output does not have any formatting to it.

FM's internal conversion filters to RTF don't work very well. The mif2go filter from Omni Systems provides the best page fidelity when converting to RTF.
