I want to transport large ( > 10 MByte ) ascii files from my DOS machine to
a remote vendor set up with Macs.  They have an Ehman 45MB removable, and
the Syquest mechanism is available for DOS machines.  The drives have
incompatable file systems in their native environments, of course.

Is there software they can run on their Macs to read a DOS format removable,
or software I can run on the DOS machine to write a Mac format removable?

Networking the machines is not possible; buying a Mac and an Ehman drive
and networking software at my end is too damn expensive.  I am flipping
floppies through their Daynafile now; at 1.2MB/floppy, boring and slow.
