I tried Googling around. Most sites insist that .POT files are Powerpoint presentation templates. But I always thought Powerpoint presentation templates were PPT files.
The .PPT format is definitely used for a normal PowerPoint file type, but the .POT is the Template format for PowerPoint.
But I remember there being utilities that could read and convert the 16-bit POT files. I could have sworn it was IrfanView, but that program's website doesn't say anything about them.
IrfanView handles a huge amount of graphic/video/audio related file types, but the .POT is not one of them. I too was thinking there was a utility for this, just been way too many years since it was discussed anywhere. Maybe a search through the old FractInt Discussion List archives would turn up a hit?
