The easiest way would be to hook the cpm computer to the ms-dos computer via
a serial cable and either print the data on the cpm machine and copy from
the serial port on the msdos machine.  Its been a long time since I've worked
on a cpm machine, but we did this a lot moving from one cpm machine to another
I used to have a patch for pip that allowed copying to the serial port.
As far as software goes there was a product called CrossTalk for this purpose
and I'm pretty sure they're still in business.  I also used to have a program
that could read various cpm disk formats and write in others which included
the earliest msdos format.  Unfortunately I discarded it about 3 years ago
when I buried my dead Osborne. ;)   Good Luck!
