The Apple File Exchange program which comes with the Mac System Disk
these days will read an Apple II file and change it to a Mac file
(and visa versa).  There are also some add ons to it that will translate
file formats, e.g. Microsoft Works <--> Appleworks.

I've heard rumors of a similar utility for the Apple II line, as well
as Prodos 16 v 2.0 going to HSF so that Macs and IIs would use the same format
so that their disks would be interchangeable, but that is not out yet.

There is also a program available off Apple2-L which enables an Apple II
to read a single sided (400K) Mac disk.  Unfortunately, I don't recall
the exact name.
