You millage will vary depending on what is on the image.  One .nib image
for sure won't work is the DOS 3.2 System Masters that I uploaded to Asimov
eions ago.

ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/images/masters/dos32std.gz
ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/images/masters/dos32pls.gz

Either of these won't convert to .dsk.  They need to be .nib in order for
the 13 sector encoding to work.
