You can easily make double density disks on a windows PC from 2HD disks. Format 2HD disks at the 720Kb size. The standard format is 1.44mb. Just change the 1.44mb to 720Kb and format. I wasted my time doing this for my MX100 IIXG and then learned that I could use 1.44mb disks.
Keep in mind that if you ever try to read these disks in a device that knows the difference between HD and DD disks (such as a computer or a Mark IIXG or later Disklavier), that device will not be able to read the disk unless you trick it by covering up the permanent hole with a piece of tape.
