The .fdf file format is not machine independent.
The .g format is machine independent (plain ASCII in fact).
The directory /usr/fox/wp/bin/tools contains a number of conversion tools.
You need to do the following:
1) Convert the Sun graphic to ASCII format (.g) - fdf_g (check the name I
could be off a little)
2) Move the .g file to the target AW70
3) Convert the file back to .fdf format - g_fdf (likewise check the name)
Does this help?

Subject: [foxboro] AW51 Displays on an AW70
I was under the impression that FoxView displays created on a Sun box
could be copied and used on a Win box. I have several displays that were
created using FoxDraw 8.0 on an AW51. I would like to copy them to and
edit them on an AW70 running FoxDraw 9.0 When I try to open the files on
the AW70, I get this message:
Invalid file type selected, file type not supported.
Is there some sort of conversion I need to do?
Thanks!
