I'm going to list some products that might help you: 1. PFS:CONVERT - a free program from PFS that converts DOS 3.3 PFS files to ProDOS PFS files. 2. CrossWorks - a commercial program that converts IBM files such as WordPerfect to AppleWorks and (I think) vice versa. 3. MatchPoint PC - an interface card that can be installed in an IBM PC that allows it to read and write Apple II DOS 3.3, ProDOS, and CP/M disks. It will allow you to move files between IBM an Apple II but does no conversions except to add or strip linefeeds for text files. 4. Apple File Exchange (AFE) the Mac with the Works-Works translator that comes with Microsoft Works allows AppleWorks files to be converted to Mac Microsoft Works. 5. AFE with an Apple FDHD drive allows reading and writing IBM files on a Mac. 6. Conversion programs on IBM such as Software Bridge and R-Doc DX (my favourite) can convert PFS file to other formats. Whether Apple ProDOS or DOS 3.3 PFS files use the same format as IBM PFS files is another matter. I hope all of this helps.
