Claris XTND is a Macintosh system extension which provides document format translation capabilities. With XTND present, XTND-savvy applications 'understand' formats that are supported by installed XTND 'Translators'. Translators live in the 'Claris Translators' folder which should reside in the System Extensions folder.
Claris XTND and ClickWorks™
ClickWorks™ utilizes XTND translators to import text files from many word processors. The text can be imported with original styling in tact.
To take full advantage of this capability, you may want to purchase translators that support your favorite word processor file formats. Translators for MS-Word® and WordPerfect® and other formats can be purchased from several vendors.
You may consider purchasing MacLink Plus from DataViz Inc., which includes a large number of XTND translators. You can contact DataViz at (800) 733-0030, or get more information in their web site at www.dataviz.com.
