Stew,
what version of Claris Works did you use to create the schematics?

I just found a copy of the original disks. It was Claris Works for windows version v1.0b and came free with a PC Plus magazine in 1995. It fit on 2 x 3.5" disksAlastair wrote:Stew,

I have been messing about with Basilisk II (a 68k Mac emulator) and eventually found a conversion program that told me the release number and version of your files, but I cannot get the program to actually convert anything! Instead I used Claris Works 4.0 for Mac, which comes with some handy scripts and its own conversion program, to create both version 3 and 4 Claris Works files (attached). Perhaps LibreOffice will make a better job of converting these files? (I cannot test this at the moment because I do not have LibreOffice installed.)sorchard wrote:I just found a copy of the original disks.

I'll attempt to install it when I get a moment.
Surprisingly you can get Windows versions of Claris Works, or ClarisWorks, from the Macintosh Garden. The blurb for ClarisWorks for Win v1.0 states:sorchard wrote:nb. I installed Claris Works 1.0b on XP but it complains about memory on start up. I guess it needs a DOS style memory manager.
Minimum requirements:
Windows OS: 3.1 (Enhanced Mode).
CPU: 386
Installs & runs OK on XP if installed to C:\CLARIS
Optimized for an 8bit display (256 colours)
Some artifacts noticed if display is set to higher resolutions.
You've struck gold again Alastair! I downloaded v1 from your link and it runs on Win7 32bit. I was able to create some clean pdf files.Alastair wrote:Surprisingly you can get Windows versions of Claris Works, or ClarisWorks, from the Macintosh Garden.
