Convert PMD to INDD

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert PMD to INDD?
Yes - PMD converts to INDD.

Convert the legacy PageMaker document to InDesign: an older InDesign (CS2-CS6 era) with the PageMaker filter can import the .pmd and save it as a modern .indd. Current InDesign CC cannot do this directly - you must go through the older version.

Also to INDD: QXP · QXD · P65
