he'll have to convert them once they are on the hard drive.

: You could do that - publish to a folder on your hard drive.
: Delete all the folders with names starting _vti from the new folder -
: there is at least one such folder in every folder in the website. _vti*
: folders are NEVER published from web to web - they are created and
: maintained by the FrontPage and the extensions.
:
: Also delete _vti_inf.html and postinfo.htm from the root folder if they
: exist.
: Then burn the rest to a DVD or CDR.
:
: Your colleague would then copy the DVD contents to a folder on their
: hard drive, and open in FrontPage. FP will convert this folder to a
: web.
