This program came with the system 7.6.1 upgrade and makes it easier to move back and forth between platforms and different word processing programs. Copy files from and to your IBM disk at will, work on them in the Macintosh platform, and then save them back to your IBM disk. Most of your work will be word processing files. There are three ways of working between the platforms. First is to save all your files in the the text format.
All computers can read text only documents.
To save as a text file, on your save dialog box is an option menu for file format. Scroll down and select text , and then save. I usually type the message first and than format the style as the last option prior to printing. In the Mac world at school the most common problem of not following this procedure, is the message about a font not being available on the machine and that it will substitute a default font. This gibberish simply means that you first set up the font from a Power Mac with a host of font choices, and the poor LC II doesn't have that sizable list in its memory, hence the LCII uses its default.
