In the field of computer design and plate making, the most commonly used ones are the MAC and PC platforms. The MAC platform has high performance and fast processing speed in the field of planar image processing. The PC platform is recognized by everyone because of its fast update speed, low price, good compatibility and wide use. Due to the simultaneous existence of the two platforms, the problem of file transfer and file conversion between the two platforms is followed. Here we will discuss the problem of file conversion between MAC and PC.
The first is the issue of file naming. Both the MAC and PC platform files are named using the characters in the keyboard. There is basically no problem in the file conversion process. When using Chinese characters for file naming, if the same font library (such as Founder, Hanyi, etc.) is used, the conversion is no problem; If the Chinese characters in different Chinese characters are named for the file, the file name will be garbled, making the file name unrecognizable. Therefore, when naming the file, you should try to use the English name.
The requirements for file names differ between the two platforms. The PC platform needs to add a suffix (.*) indicating the file type to the file. Otherwise, the software may not be recognized or the file is unavailable. The MAC platform does not add a suffix to the file name, and it can determine the file by itself. format. Therefore, when the files of the MAC platform are to be used on the PC platform, it is necessary to add a file suffix.
In the process of converting the two platforms, the same software is not used, but the version number of the software used to make the files to be converted is the same. In this case, the normal conversion and use of the files can be guaranteed. Files made with different version numbers are incompatible with each other between the two platforms. In addition, some file formats are common formats, which can be freely converted between two platforms, such as .TIF, .JPG, .PS, etc. They do not have the same requirements for the software version number of the two platforms, and can be used freely.
Some companies in the production layout process, the text part is completed on the PC platform, and then complete the typesetting work on the MAC platform. At this time, you need to pay attention to the space and carriage return on the PC platform, explain the error on the MAC platform and generate garbled characters, so minimize the input of spaces and carriage returns during the process of inputting text using the PC platform.
When some software-made files (such as Pagemaker) are opened on different platforms, the fonts need to be replaced during the opening process because the fonts are not compatible.
