Best as I am aware Cross-Works was not updated past AW 3.0. I used AW 4.3
and found the CW translations to be pretty spotty unless the AW files were
fairly generic. I used to compose my Eamon newsletters on my IIe, CW them to
my PC, then clean them up in Word to print out on my PC's inkjet. Generally
there was a lot of cleaning up to do.
