to copy data from Apple II Disk drive to PC, to create the image dsk for
Apple II emulator in what cable?
ADT and ADTpro are fine solutions for transferring *normal* Apple II
disks over a serial link using an Apple II to control the Apple disk
drive.
DSK2FDI can be used on PCs with two floppy drives to capture the "front"
side of a normal 5.25" Apple disk without the need for an Apple II or
Apple disk drive.
But for *protected* disks, there's no easy solution, in general.
The "general" solution is to "normalize" the disk(s) by removing
the protection (a manual process), then transfer the normalized
disks by the usual means.
