The #1 selling file conversion utility for Windows now supports Lotus Millennium, WordPerfect 9.0 and more.
Convert files from your Mac to PC with Conversions Plus. Open, view, print and convert virtually any file no matter where it comes from, e.g., Word, Excel, WordPerfect, Lotus 1-2-3, ClarisWorks/AppleWorks, etc. Conversions Plus is a great way to retrieve old Mac files. Don't get caught with a file you can't open!

Conversions Plus can convert files from different word spreadsheet, graphic and database formats, so you can actually open and edit them in your own programs - just as if they were created there Document formatting such as bold, italics and even embedded graphics are retained, so you don't have to retype or reformat. Check out our list of what comes through in translation.

Use encoded or compressed files - like problem e-mail attachments
Many files you download from the Internet or receive via e-mail are compressed to save space or encoded during transfer. Conversions Plus can decompress or decode files with a double-click. In addition, Conversions Plus allows you to see the contents of archives. You can then choose one or all of the files to view, convert, etc.

What happened to the MacOpener features within Conversions Plus?
MacOpener has been discontinued from the DataViz product line as of March 11, 2007. Because of our current business direction, we were not able to update MacOpener in a timely manner to support many of the new USB, FireWire and other drive types - as well as Windows Vista. We are now offering MacDrive from Mediafour as an option to purchase with Conversions Plus.MacDrive is most appropriate for people exchanging files with Macintosh media who are running the same programs on both platforms or who are using cross-platform compatible files. Conversions Plus contains the ability to translate files between various formats. When needing to convert files off Macintosh media, you would first need MacDrive to view the Mac disk on your PC, and then you would use Conversions Plus to do the file conversion. Conversions Plus and MacDrive compliment each other in this manner.

Fix E-mail Attachment Problems

The Internet and e-mail makes it easier than ever to share files with people. This can sometimes cause problems with the files when they are encoded or compressed. Conversions Plus can fix these problems and let you work with the files you need.

Have you ever gotten an e-mail that looks like this?

Many times you receive a file via e-mail and the attached file appears as garbage at the end of a e-mail message. Conversions Plus will retrieve your important file and give it to you in a format you can use.

Other times you are able to retrieve the attached file from your e-mail message but not use it. For example, does your file icon ever look like the one to the right - a generic Windows icon?

Conversions Plus will determine the format of the file, add the correct Windows extension and allow you to view or print it - even without the program that created it.

Use Encoded or Compressed files

Many files you download from the Internet or receive via e-mail are compressed to save space or encoded during transfer. Conversions Plus can decompress or decode files with a double-click. In addition, Conversions Plus allows you to see the contents of archives. You can then choose one or all of the files to view, convert, etc.
