I've still got about 85 PaperPort .MAX files from 2004-2006 when we had a scanner bundled with the format. It's proprietary, which is a real pain now that I no longer have the software to read it. None of the files are drop-dead crucial, but it turns out there's no converter available at all. And I'm hardly the only person in this pickle. Proprietary formats are a Bad Thing.
Well, but honestly - how hard could it possibly be to come up with something that could convert these to a bitmap or something?
That would be an interesting exercise in file format management. I should do it. I already know the first four bytes.
