Conversion from Waterloo Script to IBM (DCF) Script.

Should it be done?

Why?

Are there any conversion tools (preferrably public domain or free) available?

One reason that I am considering the conversion is the lack of AFP support in Waterloo Script.
Especially, the lack of color support.  I know that it has some font support.

Reasons that I am considering DCF over a PC word processor solution includes both the current
availablity of PCs and the amount of data extracted from mainframe data bases.

Thanks in advance.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.
