I have encountered a recent problem when sending attachments to Windows
users. I am using Entourage X on OSX 1.3 and whenever I send an AutoCAD file
to a Windows user it has the creator and type added. Now it didn't do this
before and I am using the same settings so I don't know what is causing
this.
The file is unreadable to the Windows user until the Windows user deletes
everything after the 3 letter file extension, example:
I will attach and send the following file with no compression and encoded
for Windows (MIME/Base64) the Attachment in the attachment window says:
FSR600P.dwg
The Windows user will get an attachment that says:
FSR600P.dwg; x-mac-creator=4C4D414E; x-mac-type=54455854.txt
He can not open this file until everything except the file name and
extension is deleted.
When he returns the file back to me it also has the creator and type stuff.
Checking the file extension box and switching to "Any Computer" setting have
no effect.
Some files are not affected like MS Word file with a .doc extension are ok.
Help I am being blamed again for screwing up the Windoze World!
Thanks,
Greg
