No. But your Archimedes and your Mac can both read PC disks. If you can,
convert any DrawFiles to Sprite format. Convert Sprites to TIFFs and
save them on PC-format disks. Allow the Mac to read the PC-format disks,
import them into something like Graphic Converter and then do with them
what you will!

I very much fear, however, that if you only have a Mac and a load of
Acorn disks, you will have to find someone (else) with an Acorn who can
export them in a form which you can read.

MacFS and AppleFS from Computer Concepts and Oregan respectively will
read and write to Mac format disks from/on an Acorn. Alternatively,
upload them to (yourself on) the internet and d/load onto a PC or Mac.

Good luck!
