If you are just wanting to convert the entire disk for use with an
emulator, then the program called ADT (Apple Disk Transfer) is what
you need.  There is a program that runs on the Apple side and a
program that runs on the PC side (many versions, DOS, MS Windows, and
Linux, I believe).

If there is data (AppleWorks SS, DB, WP) that you want to convert for
use with a program on the Mac or PC, then you need to locate the
CrossWorks program.  I believe that it has been released so that it
can be used without any restrictions.  It use to be commercial.

I believe that Mr. Charles Turley has a copy on his web site.  Maybe a
search of http://groups.google.com will help find it.  Maybe
http://www.google.com will also help.

Either way, you will need to have the appropriate hardware and cable.

If you have a Super Serial card, you need either a straight through
serial cable or null modem cable depending on how the jumper block on
the Super Serial card is set.
