I'm not sure what you mean but NuLib uncompresses .SDK files without
any problems that I know of.  That is the way I originally move some
of my disks over to my PC to try out XGS.  I created .SDK files of
some 800k disks, transferred them to the PC, used NuLib to create .RAW
dumps of the disk images then used a utility to convert them into disk
images useable by the emulator.

I just tried it and it works fine with ProDOS 5.25" .SDK files but I
had problems doing it with DOS 3.3 5.25" .SDK files and I'm not sure
why.
