I did try to bring stuff up in Word. Didn't

The only thing that works so far is bringing up a file in openoffice, then saving it as a jpg and importing. Super tedious.

What is the file extension on the individual image files?

Rob, they are .wmf

I can't find any easy way to convert .wmf files on the Mac.

Thanks for the effort, Rob.

It was one of those too good to be true deals. Ah well. Maybe I can find a school that can use the disks.

There are lots of batch converter programs for converting wmf files to jpg. If somoene you know has a windows computer they can download a batch computer, convert all the wmf files to jpg than give you a disk with the jpeg files. The mac should be able to then read it with no problem.

Here is a batch wmf image converter for the mac that has a batch mode. Don't know offhand if it is free or not. [link]

At any rate google batch wmf converters for Mac.

You might try the wmf convert pro. It is one of the downloads at this address. [link]

It is a trial version, but if you are luck the limitation is time period and you can convert all the images to some other format before it expires. There is also a more general

Better yet here is a program that claims to be complete free. [link] Convert whole folder at a time just like the other one. I'm not 100% sure it handles wmf, but only one way to find out.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, I've heard good things about Zombies, Run!, but I don't have an iPhone. Does anyone know if it would be safe to run with an ipad mini (first generation)? Or will it do bad things to the...stuff? Memory? Other things?
