ADTPro works just fine with 800K images to 800K floppies.
ADTPro also works just fine with 800K images to an 800K partition on a
1 MB RamFactor card (I have used it for that purpose many times).
ADTPro also works just fine with 5 MB images to a 5 MB ProFILE, and 10
MB images to a 10 MB ProFILE. (I have used it for both.)
Where you will run into trouble is if you try to send an image to a
disk that is the wrong size. Don't try to send a 140K image to an
800K floppy, even if the 140K image is ProDOS-format.
ADTPro doesn't send files. It sends whole disks. So you need to make
sure that the disk (or partition) that is on the receiving end is the
exact same size as the image that you are sending to it.
