file conversion software

#1 (**permalink**) 04-May-2007, 16:20

I am trying to convert files that were created by Ready,Set,Go v5 on a MAC,
so that they can be read by open office. I have tried the commercial
software Conversion Plus. I have googled quite a bit on this one. I have
found a modern windows version of the software but it crashes when I feed
it a serial #. I have over 2ooo documents that I need to convert.

Any Ideas?

What on earth is that program ? Never heard of it.
And do you still have it running?

You should give more details, as most people here never used a Mac. Which
doesn't mean they can't help. But knowing in what field to look, should
be a minimum.

I google'd a bit, and downloaded the manual for the Windows version. This
is a rather primitive software, it seems. It's Save-as option's only
purpose seems to be, to select another name or directory. No mension of
saving under another format. Unless there is a specific export function,
elsewhere?

The program is an old Desktop publishing program that my church has used for
over 10 years. The church is now using a PC and would like to have
documents and spreadsheets imported.

There are two windows versions of the program available. The Gold edition
and the Ruby edition. I have tried setting up a 14 day trial version of
the Ruby edition because it will alow me to extract the files in ASCII.
The problem is a line exception error is generated when I enter the serial
#. I have been in contact with RSG customer support but have not had any
success.

This forum is not for windows or mac programs but I was hopping that someone
would have an idea of linux program that could extract the information I
need without me spending a lot of time deleting extra characters out each
file manually.

Mark

Have you seen Scribus? This is the open source desktop publishing software.
See http://www.scribus.net/ You might want to ask on their forums/mailing
lists. See if they can help.

Is this a manual entry, or a copy-paste ?
Considering the difference in end-of-line characters between Mac and
Windows...

If I run across one of our graphists, I'll ask about it.
But I do their IT support, and hadn't heard the name before.

I'll let you know if I find something.

Would you considering sharing one of these files, for evaluation of it's
contents ?

Thank you for your help. Bellow is a sample of a file opened with kwrite. I
tried sending it at an attachment but received a 401 error.

Thanks for the suggestion. Scribus did not like the binary file format of
the original documents.

The saga continues.

1) They have import options, do they have any export options for their
files?
2) Have you tried to copy and paste visible content to some application like
OpenOffice. There is version for MAC OS X.

I have resolved the issue. I was issued a longer trial license and used the
windows version of the program to extract the files.

Thank you for trying.
