I am wondering if there is a standard way for generating IDML with the Flex TextLayoutFramework - would help us a lot. Has anybody experiences whith both of it?

This you will have to do yourself completely. I am currently building a Flex publishing solution that does exactly what you describe. I have written my own import and export routines that can parse and translate IDML to TLF and vice versa. Just break open an IDML file and check the files in the 'Stories' directory, these parts of the IDML tree are the only XML you'll need to convert to TLF. Also download the IDML specifications and cookbook, these PDF's are basically all you need to get up to speed.

So, all in all, this will have to be a 'roll-your-own' scenario, but its very doable.
