Re: [Digital BW] IJC on w2k ...mac emulation???

2003-06-04 by Billy Cobb

tiff / jpeg graphics file formats are  universal, they were DESIGNED to be cross platform.
There's no problem reading cross platform formatted Zip disks  from Mac to PC ... been doin' it since 1998.

The only difference is the collection of 'extra' files Macs annoyingly ad to the disk ... a WinTel machine will ignore those files though.

  Am I missing something here?

  Sounded to me like we're talking about moving files from a Wintel machine 
  to a Mac.

  Aren't the zip disk formats different?
