The easiest way would probably be to use Twerx to transfer them to Works
(assuming they're not already there) and then export using NCU to a Rich
Text file.

Or, if you've got ethernet and a UNIX box, set up an AppleTalk print queue
on the UNIX box, capture its output to a file, and then have the Newton
print to it - then you'll get a postscript file. Not very editable, but
certainly usable.
