I have some old Freehand 3.0 graphics files that I am wanting to convert to any currently usable format. While I have the old Freehand program, I do not have a machine old enough to run it. Nothing I can find can convert a file that old. Can anyone help in converting these files? They are of a map designed for a game on Salerno back in the 1990's and we are finally getting around to finishing the project. We will do the playtest on Vassal. Please email you you can help or have suggestions. jimdunnam@swbell.net |

Freehand files are vector, so maybe one of these?: link |

Thanks much. We put a lot of work into these files, really hate to go back to square one. |

I use inkscape myself. Mostly for converting bmp to vector though. I could potentially do you a 3d elevation model and or hypsometric interpretation using google maps data. Not sure how different salerno would be now compared to ww2. |

Unfortunately I only have the FH3 format of the files. |

There seem to be some user created programs that claim to be able to convert later versions (7+) to PDF but nothing I could see for earlier versions. |
