Does anyone know how to go about backing up Pascal disks? I've got an original/complete boxed copy of Apple Pascal 1.2,

I tried using ADT and it doesn't like the disk format, so it's probably not a 16-sector disk or something. Anyone know how to back these up?
I know that at the base format level, Pascal disks are the same as DOS/ProDOS disks (16 soft sectors, 35 tracks) but the logical contents are completely different (how files are stored, catalog etc.)
If you're OK with doing backups the good ol' way, (duplicating onto floppies) I believe you can copy them using a sector copier like COPYA, and Appendix E of the Pascal Language Reference Manual tells you how to do it via the Pascal Filer.
If you feel you have to pull your backups onto a different platform, I can't help you!
