If you run Windows, CiderPress (http://www.faddensoft.com/) can convert
ProDOS disk images to ShrinkIt file archives and vice-versa.

ShrinkIt isn't likely to work with 1.44MB disks.  You can use Sheppy's
volume image tool (http://www.sheppyware.net/, look for ImageMaker
in the Apple II section) to convert floppies and hard drive images to
ProDOS-ordered image files that work with emulators like KEGS.

I made an ImageMaker backup of my hard drive partitions as well as a
GSHK file-by-file backup of all files and copied them through a network
connection.  The hard drive image works fine with KEGS.  Someday XGS
might even be compatible.
