Re: PRODOS TO MSDOS
I've taken AppleWorks files, "printed" them as ASCII files to
Prodos disk, then uploaded those files and sent them via email. They
were then downloaded on the Messy-Dos side, with the text intact. Some
formatting remained. I've also taken an AW file on a 3.5 disk, read it
into a Mac, then saved it back to an MS-DOS 3.5 using AppleFile
Exchange. MS-WORD was the word processor on both the Mac and the MS-DOS
Compaq, and I was disappointed that the conversion wasn't better.
The bottom line in my methods was that the text came across ok,
with precious little formatting. Be ready to edit out a lot of weird marks!
