    Can anyone recommend cheap mac to pc file transfer software. Trying to upload a file sent to me today onto the board but it’s too big about 1.2mb. This is only artwork customer has. Alternatively if I could send file to someone for conversion

    Sorry Kevin. I received both files but can’t open either.

    I’m no expert, but I suspect that your problem may be that your mail reader doesn’t understand MIME format, which is what this file was sent as.

    Unless anybody knows any better, all I can suggest is that you ask your customer if they can re-send in a different format.

    Thanks for trying John. Every now and again you get a job that causes endless problems. I suspect this could be one of those

    Im not an expert, but are you using AOL?

    We used these for a short time, and if they dont know or use that kind of file, they convert it!

    Not sure if they still do

    Only a thought

    Kevin,

    We have an FTP site that you could try sending file to if this helps. We run a network of both MAC and PC machines with Quark and Adobe software on both platforms.
    If this helps the address of the FTP site is ftp://80.176.99.250

    Best regards

    Russell.
