I would like my mac to be able, yet again, to outshine the PCs of my co-workers, but I am stuck. Can you help ? A (PC) colleague of mine has received an e-mail attachment (reportedly some kind of technical CAD picture) and has asked me to "decode" it as so far I have always been able to translate "whatever graphics file" he has ever been able (or forced) to throw at me. This time I am stymied because nothing in my arsenal (no, not even Maclink Plus, nor Graphic Converter) has any idea what to do with a PC ".drw" file. Can anyone help me (and hence the poor PC user) out by telling me what application makes .drw files. I would especially like to hear from anyone who knows of a mac utility which might be able to read these files and hopefully turn 'em into eps's or perhaps pict's - but I suppose I could live with it if you can tell me of a PC utility which can do it (I would just have to use Soft PC; convert his file and then still tell him I did it on a Mac!)
