Hi, Beth: There's no difference between FM files on Mac, unix, and Windows. However, there are some file-naming limitations you'll run into with long file names on Windows that get truncated on Mac, because you're running FM in Classic, not true OS X. You also may have font differences, either because of differently-named fonts, not having the fonts on both computers, or perhaps not selecting the same printer. See the multiple_platforms.pdf in the OnlineManuals folder in the FM installation folder for more detail. Mostly it's a non-problem. HTH Peter Gold KnowHow ProServices
