So, I think that translation is possible, because deep view can open files; however, you need to use rational as the authoring tool, I believe.

Only problem is I'm getting is when I try and create a picture / actual diagram it throws an error saying it can't connect to the diagram server. This application can be very useful for a blind person to make a diagram for sighted people. If one could create the reverse, a program to convert a diagram into a native DeepView file then this would be a total solution.
