select the whold document and command-option-D will save a PICT copy to
the clipboard. Then paste into MacDraw etc.  You might want to do this one
page at a time (depending on memory).

For heavy duty use SuperGlue will allow you to 'print to disk' - creating
a PICT document for each page - automatically.

With both methods you will loose some formating that is not supported by
the PICT format, such as 'both sides' justified text  :-(
