There were a number of parallel cable networking handlers for the Amiga to connect to a PC back in the 90's. Check AmiNet - I think there's an archive with a handler and an explanation.

The other thing you can do is to hook the two together via serial cables and a null-modem adapter, then use terminal software to transfer the files. I used to do that all the time. The parallel port network is faster if you can get it going. Serial is pretty slow.

Yeah, if the files fit on floppy, that's certainly the easiest method.  :-)
