As the originator of the "8 inch Floppies" question, I failed to
communicate the correct question.  Let me try again.

We have data on an 8" disks.  We do not have an 8" disk drive.  The drive
was on some old Gerber layout system, which was pushed over the cliff many
years ago.

Before we got rid of the equipment, an incomplete transfer of data occured.
Enough data was transferred so that everyone got a warm feeling that
everything got transferred, but alas, not so.

So, here I am, with these two 8" floppies, an anxious Management, and a PWB
requirement.  (Buying the boards where we bought them before is not an
option)

My trusty board suppliers can not read 8" disk.  SO.....

How do I get the data off the 8" floppy to my supplier so he can make
boards?  Any Ideas?

Thanks for the input so far.  You really make technet a valuable source.
