I've done pretty well using MacLink. It doesn't know NotaBene specifically,
but if you manually identify the file as being made in "XYwrite (on which I
believe NotaBene is based), it will convert most aspects.

You should take a look at Wordport for conversion from NB.
It supports a number of other formats as well.
There is a website from which you can download an experimental copy.
Take a look at http://www.acii.com/news.htm
and follow the links from there.

Microsoft had quite a good translator available for Word 2.0 (under
XYWrite, which was pretty much the same thing as Nota Bene). If you can
borrow an old 2.0, with the added (free) translator, your problems will be
solved, as both Word 6 and WordPerfect6 can read Word 2 files.
It's worked for me.

NotaBene markets a WordPerfect converter, which costs about $30. It is not
wholly satisfactory. The Corel WordPerfect 7 has a built-in NotaBene
converter (it reads them, rightly, as XY-Write files), which does not
preserve things like italics.

Nota Bene provides file conversion software called "Morphos," which converts
files back and forth between Nota Bene and other applications, such as
Microsoft Word and Word Perfect. The best would be to get in touch with
Nota Bene headquarters in New York.
