Hi Mary...
I'm sure there are others with first hand experience on this move .. but
regarding plugins, you can review the list of all (currently 96) known
(to me) FM plugins using our ToolSearch database at ..

Good luck with the move!

Hello Framers,
I will soon be converting my Mac Frame 7 documents to Frame 7 on the
PC. My Mac is getting old and the organization wants the jobs on PC.
My documents are both published (web-press) from high resolution PDFs
and posted on the web as Web-ready PDFs. With no other help available
to me, I am seeking advice from the Frameuser group.
Big issues:
Operating system: Looks like I might be getting Genuine Windows XP
Professional, SP2, with Media XPP2E. Will this system work with Frame
7.0 (already purchased)? Any known problems?
Fonts: On the Mac I use only Adobe Postscript fonts (most often
Helvetica family) and have never had any problems. What kind of fonts
should I buy for the PC that will always be reliable and problem-free
for printing and web? Font technology has changed since my Mac fonts
were purchased and my knowledge is not up-to-date.
Acrobat issues: I currently use Acrobat 5 on the Mac. Are there
issues with newer Acrobat versions, and which version will work with
Frame 7.0 on PC?
Plug-ins: I don't have any plugs-ins or other helpful software and
would like information about the most useful.
I would like to make this transfer as smooth as possible and would
greatly appreciate any help that you would like to share - even horror
stories. Not wishing to clog up the Frame list, you may respond to my
e-mail address on these issues. Please use the subject line Need Help
Mac to PC. Thanks for helping.
Mary Haas
