ana I have a problem job comming up in which my client is completely Mac based. They want my 3ds Tif file placed neatly on one of their 88 syquest cartridges and FedExed back! When they pull it up on their systems they may do what they will! I know there are utilities for this conversion but I thought I'd ask you about it to see what the down side is first (before I go through the headache). I let an SB do this conversion for me before but I'll be horn-swaggled if I'll be billed 35.00 again. I can buy an App that does that for not much more than this!!!! ~>:(- Their disk will be formatted for Mac and my 88 writes IBM what utility is there and what is the procedure? On another topic, did you already sell your Wacom 12×12? I can't believe I let that slip by w/o asking for a $. If you have it email the $. I'll pay! Thanks as always, Gary

I've done this a couple of times before using MO128, transfer was done on the MAC, reading the IBM formatted MO, through PCaccess on the MAC, I transferred flawlessly TIFF files and QXD, quarkxpress files. Only thing to keep in mind, do not use compression on the TIF file, save it as an uncompressed TIF. Hope this helps somewhat
