I have a question concerning compatibility between IBMs and Macintoshes.
Does anyone know of any software that runs on the IBM that will read in
Macintosh drawings for review and modification? Specifically, I'm looking
for a drawing/graphics package that will import MacDraw documents and allow
for modification.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I doubt if anything will let you modify them other than the same application running on both machines (i.e., PageMaker), and the drawings would be very limited. Importing read-only is easy because there's only one graphics "standard" for the importing application to worry about. I once gave up in disgust after a couple hours trying to import graphics from several PC programs to Ventura Publisher. I redrew it all on a Mac, copied it over a TOPS network, and loaded it. It took about 15 minutes, including walking back and forth between the Mac and the AT. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My opinions are my own.
