IPF to original floppy

Hi guys.
Sorry if this has been discussed in the past, but I can't find it in the million threads.
I used to work in a game shop during the amiga age, and when it all comes to an end (sigh) i took some broken original game (rma like). Some of them have been repaired, 2 of them have been formatted with the aim of repair the disks.
Well, the disks give no errors now. The games are Cardinal of the kremlin (no ipf...) and top banana (probably the ugliest game on the amiga).
I have the top banana ipf, an amiga 1200+blizzard 1220/4 connected via tcp/ip to the pc.
Is there any way to put back the ipf on the original disk and make it works?

Sorry if my english sounds bad, I'm doing the best I can

EDIT: sorry guys for double posting... i opened a similar thread years ago... in the meantime i get older, more stupid, married and father of 2...

Some options are:

Use a KryoFlux to make a disc from the IPF
Mount the IPF in WinUAE and copy to an ADF, then transfer to Amiga and write to disk (only helpful if no copy protection)
Transfer IPF to Amiga and mount, then copy with e.g. XCOPY - again only if there is no / light protection on the disc

The best option would be to use a KryoFlux as you wish to restore the original disk. You can either purchase one or ask someone who has one to do it for you. If you post the original disk to me (and IPF - but email would probably do for that) I can write the IPF to the disk and post back for you (I have a KryoFlux)

How do you mean no luck? Could you mount the IPF?
