The report mentions that RootsMagic can import FamilyTree Maker files. I have the free version, V.7, which does contain an import option for files from 'Family Tree Maker (2006 and earlier)' so this may provide a valid Gedcom. Not having any such files I can not test it.
In fact I have found some ftw files and imported them to RootsMagic, created a gedcom which opens in GenoPro.
According to the site RootsMagic runs on a Mac

Hello all,
Im here for similar reasons as others . My father created a family tree in family tree maker but passed away in 2010 soI don ' t have access to family tree maker software ... and am on a mac so cant download the free trial . I luckily found the FTW file in an old email but haven ' t been able to open it . I am on Ancestry and have a paid subscription but was not able to upload the FTW file . I also tried Roots Magic but it gave an error when trying to open the file there . Im really hoping there is not an issue with the file as it is the only copy . Anybody able to help with converting the file to Gedcom or have any suggestions ? I tried to attached the file here but cant even do that as says the file type is unsupported  |

I have just installed a 14 day trial of FTW2005, so could try if it will convert the file to a GEDCOM file if you could attach or send it.
I think that GenoPro will only accept a few file types as attachments. (not including FTW or FBK)
I suggest that you first make a copy of the FTW file (to prevent possible corruption of the original file), and then try either compressing the copy to a zip file, or just re-naming the copy to have a txt extension, and see if you can either attach to a GenoPro post, or send it as an email attachment to my GenopPro email link.
I will try to help you if I can,
Martyn

I only have 3 days left on my free trial of FTW2005;
If you can be quick in attaching your FTW file to your forum post, I will try and convert it to Gedcom for you before my free trial expires.

You can install a free version of RootsMagic Essentials which can import Family Tree Maker pre 2014 (my version) and export as gedcom. If you have problems get in touch
