They later brought them back in an Appleworks update. I still have Maclinkplus 12 from my OS 9 days. I tried copying the translator files from it into Appleworks for OS X's translator folder, but they didn't work. There are Carbonized translators that work for OS X :( And There's an OS X version of Maclinkplus available: http://www.dataviz.com/products/maclinkplus/index.html But, at least I can still use Maclinkplus under Classic.
