Though I realize that it involves dealing with Hirsch, have you asked this question of Tajima?

You have convert ofm to dst or the native file that they like. dst is best file for most people to read. Truesizer will do that. open file save as dst put on disk done.

From supplies, to equipment, I have found the techs in this industry generally outstanding, and eager to share their knowledge.

It is a format of Melco. You'll have to find somebody who sells Melco. Truesizer won't work.
If you need it converted let me know. I can do it.
