Hello !

I'm searching for technical notes about MacDraw II file format, because
I've to write a converter to translate file into dxf.

But nobody knows the MacDraw II format, only the MacDraw (1) Format

Somebody can help me?

do not know what dxf is - but try the aplications
graphic converter - shareware
Freehand - macromedia

I beleive these programs will read and then allow you to resave any mac
draw/mac draw 2 formats

dxf is the AutoCad exchange format,

I've not said that I work on PC not on Mac, because my old Macintosh is
dying and I want to save and re-use my files

I will test this software, I hope it will be the solution because I
have approximately 3000 files...

really thank you

None of this softwares can read MacDraw II format...

Graphic Converter only knows MacDraw 1 (and me too)

the other can be resave MacDraw II file into PICT Format but I've to
much file to do it by hand. It is possible to make some automating
operation on old Mac ( system 7 I think ) ?

You might be able to automate this with something like QuicKeys.

Me neither, but maybe you'll find interesting informations on
http://www.wotsit.org/

That's  my source for file formats. ;-)
