From PC to MAC

A friend of mine needs me to send him a document. Currently the document is in Word format. This guy has no internet and wants me to give him the document on a cdrom. Will a cdrom burnt from XP work on a MAC? What format should I save the document in? Thanks guys.

If he has a recent version of Word for Mac it will be able to read your Word document. If you burn it in ISO9660 (or whatever it is) mode it should also work fine. HTH. Michael Martin Australia "I suspect I will be impressed though, I am easy." - Paul Watson 21/09/2003

If the word format fails, you can always try RTF (supported by most word processors) -- I am perpetual, I keep the country clean.

Unless this guy has Word for the Mac save it as RTF. Also, burn it on an ISO9660 CD-ROM with or without Joilet extensions (it doesn't matter). Ever since MacOS 8 there's been support for that ISO format. It won't read Joilet (without downloading a driver), but you'll still see the 8.3 filename. Jeremy Falcon
