Canon StarWriter
How To Do
WinConv shoud convert files copied to the hard disk
in some working folder.
Canon Starwriter floppies are plain MS-DOS floppies. You should be
able to see the files in the Explorer. If yes, copy the files to the
working folder and do the conversion.
Because of the filenaming conventions, it can happen that the files
can't be copied to the working folder.
For instance, Canon StarWriter accepts spaces in filenames and accepts
upper case and lower case characters. The solution is then to use a
disk editor and to correct the culprit filenames.
It can also happen that the Explorer doesn't see anything. If this is
a HD floppy, try to mask the second hole (the one without read-only
slider) and try again.
The floppy drive of the processor could namely format a HD floppy as a
logical DD one.
