The IIe card is a real //e; calling it an emulator is a misnomer. If you 
connect up a 5.25, it works exactly like a 5.25 equipped //e. So you handle
image files as well as any other files the same as on a more typical //e.

If you want to access a ProDOS volume on your hard disk, make sure that
the hard disk option is installed in a slot in the //e option panel. Then
it should show up as a hard disk in that slot when you're running //e 
software. Once you have that, you access the 5.25 and the hard disk in 
exactly the same way as on a //e equipped with a 5.25 drive and a hard disk.
Ditto the 3.5 drive even.

Questions about manipulating image files and their contents will get better
answers over in comp.emulators.apple2.
