[comp.misc] aes to msdos conversion

terry@xenlink.UUCP (Terry Cioni) (12/11/88)

Our company is currently using AES wordprocessing equipment and desperately
wants to move the whole effort to an MSDOS environment.

The problem is we have a large number of documents we would like to convert
to ASCII and then transport them to whatever MSDOS wordprocessor is decided
upon.

We thought of copying the documents out to the printer port and from their
into a pc using some sort of communications package.  However, the ports on
the AES are by no means standard - to date we have been unable to get any
help with the printer port configuration.

Can anyone help with either a port pin out - or some software conversion 
solution.  Please advise by uucp mail, rather than posting - I will post the
results for others who may have a similar need.

Thank you.
