Would that be a different file extension or might you not have the spelling correct? I do not know but there is free software called Switch which will convert an .aac file to .mp3. If you Google for Switch then you can download it. There is the free version and the Pro version. I think for the trial period it operates on the Pro and then reverts to the standard Switch for the free version. ----- Original Message ----- From: vincent stack To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, November 24, 2009 11:12 AM Subject: [vip_students] .arc file conversion hello is there free software that will convert a.arc file to an mp3. this arc file is created by the sara scanning machine. many thanks in advance. regards Vincent
