Your thread header and question lead to issues of what you really want to know.
1) windows 3.1 was distributed in 1.44 format.
2) By using a multiformat utility you can read DMF. I use a package including FDFORMAT and FDREAD which I downloaded off the web from Germany I think. You could do a google search for FDFORMAT and find a download site. There is at least one other package that will do it, but I've never needed another program since the one I have takes care of the needs.
