How To Convert Seattle FilmWork FD To a JPEG Format?

  • 2

I want to read Seattle Film Works picture files from old Floppy Disks and convert them to JPEG. I don’t mind paying a reasonable price for the software.

      There’s probably no need to read everything at https://jonesrh.info/sfw/index.html in order to convert your Seattle Filmworks images from a floppy disk using a Win10 system.

      First, go to the Quick solution Hints section at that SFW conversion portal.

      1. Try “Quick Solution Hint #1”, ie, Joe Nord’s sfwjpg, if you are *not* constrained to using only Windows Store apps.

      2. Else, try “Quick Solution HInt #2”, ie, XnViewMP or XnView. I’m not sure if it is available as a Windows Store app.

      3. Else, if your diskette has .sfw images *and* if they are all SFW94A format [ie, first 6 bytes of file data says “SFW94A”] **and NOT** SFW93A format [ie, first 6 bytes of file data says “SFW93A”], then you can use the Irfanview app which *is* available via Windows Store.

      4. Else, pick one of the other Quick solution Hints shown at the .sfw conversion portal.

      5. If you ever get here, then *now* it is time to resort to studying the https://jonesrh.info/sfw/index.html more thoroughly.
