Help? We use corel Draw but increasingly we are ending up having to email for Mac users that work in Quark, Photoshop,Pagemaker . Any ideas on outputting files or is there a conversion tool out there. Do we have to save on a formatted Mac disk from our Pc for them to read eps files? ladyg@mb.sympatico.ca

Make sure you use TIF previw headers, not WMF. -- Eric [C_TECH Volunteer]

However, be sure to send a proof of something (a PDF for example, or a Hotsend file) to make sure your AI file is complete (sometimes, the conversion gives weird restuls). Of course, if it is just for opening in Quark or PageMaker, make a note not to open the EPS file into Photoshop. Mac people tend to make no distinction about Illustrator EPS and Photoshop EPS. I had many phone calls of Mac people stating that my EPS was only 72dpi! The opened it in Photoshop and read only the header... Be sure to convert your text into curves while exporting. You can also buy an inexpensive utility from Aladdyn Software called Dropsutff. It will compress your file in Stuffit format. Linda Gardiner wrote: > Help?

... and be sure to output text as curves if you want to be sure you won't have font problems. It makes the files large, and makes them take MUCH time to rip on pages full of text, but it's the most bulletproof. Oh that Draw8 for the mac would be reliable enough to inspire confidence in the service bureau community! Corel should fix it and give it away to bona fide service bureaus.
