- We have MacLinkPlus by DataVis at work on the Mac and it can translate
- Appleworks files. I think we paid under $100 for it so it is a little
- more reasonable than some other alternatives (i.e., buying ClarisWorks
- for the Mac). MacLinkPlus is basically an Apple File Exchange clone
- which comes with dozens of translators for all sorts of file formats.
