Applying Profiles As Nodes to an existing 4.7 site with ~1000 users -- how do you get users imported?

Question:

I have an existing site on Drupal 4.7 with ~1000 users. I'd like to start using nodeprofile. Once I install nodeprofile and the modules it requires, how do I get information from a user's existing user page into a corresponding profile node?

Thanks!

so you want to import data from an existing drupal core profile?
I think you'll have to write a manual conversion script...

OK

Thanks. It wasn't clear to me, after reading the docs, what nodeprofile would do to existing user pages on a site that's already established.
