I had an Amstrad PCW before I moved to a PC. There was a method of connecting the PCW to a PC called Locolink which, from memory, made the PCW look like a drive on the PC. I used this to transfer all the files from my PCW to a PC before I got rid of it. I can't be sure as it was about 20 years since I last did any transfers but I think the files had be converted to text files by the PCW before transferring them.
