Problem moving FM docs from Mac To PC



I was contacted by someone in a very large company.
They formerly had thousands of Macs. Now down to 10 of
them (this, if it is a common development, undoubtably
is why Adobe discontinued FM on the Mac). All the rest
are now PCs. The remaining Macs OS 8.1) are still
around because they have thousands of pages
(unstructured) done in FrameMaker 5.1. 

These dcos have large numbers of QuickDraw Pict
graphics imported by copy. Some have overlayed
callouts that were added in FrameMaker. The original
graphics source files no longer exist. But, when
they're opened in FrameMaker 7 on a PC, many of them
show up a gray boxes. It appears that some of these
graphics also have a FrameVector facet in addition to
QuickDraw Pict, while others do not. They've tried
saving and reopening the files (in FM 7) with
FrameImage enabled, but that doesn't help.

Any suggestions?
