The best way I've found to translate WriteNow to other formats is with 
PageMaker 2.0a or 3.0.  PM reads WN format just fine, and will save
(Export) text into Macwrite, WN, Word 3.0, or text files.  Read your WN
in, write  out as Word 3.0, read it into FW.

I'm not sure what this does with footnotes; the material I used did
not include them.  There might be some small differences going in between
formats like this, but the main part should make it fine.
