Difficulty transferring data from one dataset to another

I am going to start a new campaign shortly for some 3.5E players that want to try out Pathfinder and maybe transition over. So, we decided they would be able to take any standard Paizo class and certain 3.5E WotC Prestige Classes upon approval. well, one of the players is planning to play a Wizard Conjurer 4/Sorcerer Arcane 4/Ultimate Magus(Complete Mage) 4/Wayfarer(Complete Arcane) 4. I know the Wayfarer is already built for HeroLab for the 3.5 dataset. How hard would it be to convert this for use in the Pathfinder dataset?
 
You'll have to re-create it - the mechanisms for class specials were improved in the transition from 3.5 to Pathfinder, which means that class specials created for 3.5 can't be used for a Pathfinder class without re-creating them in the Pathfinder style.
 
You can open two copies of HL at once, and open the editor in each, so that you can more easily reference the existing version.

But before you do so, I recommend studying up on Pathfinder's class specials - take a look at how they're used by Pathfinder classes that are like the one you're building.
