I have a 512k 1984 Macintosh. I am trying to burn some software off of here on to floppy disks so I can use it:

But I am failing!
This is a macintosh 128k body that has been upgraded at some point in the late 1980s to a 512ke. The macintosh has an 800k drive installed internally as it has the 512ke upgrade.
I have a few 800k PC formatted floppys. When I format them on my Macintosh, it reads them but then my 2019 Imac won’t read them (I’m running High Sierra 10.13.6 I think, I am not in front of it right now).
I am using an external Memorex USB Floppy Drive External Floppy 1.44 MB Double Sided/720KB Single Side for Mac/PC.
Can anyone tell me what the proper workflow is to burn software on to floppys that I can use on my Macintosh?
