Toby, have you had a look at NameCleaner
Heya people,
Anyone know how I can copy 12+ gig of data from a 10.3 mac to a Win2k server
over a network, without getting hampered by error messages stating certain
invisible files can't be copied because they have filenames Windows doesn't
like?
I thought I had the copying problem sorted
Hi Antony,
Have you tried re-saving the file as an Illustrator CS eps after ungrouping
any paths you can find in the file? The problem sounds a little like the
original eps file has it's own grouping/cropping/masking tech separate to
Illustrators, which can cause print problems (Used to get it

Any thoughts gratefully appreciated,
I take it that creating a single giant Stuffit archive is not an option?
I think Stuffit has an archive only mode (no compression) which should
be fast enough.
Now there's a idea that's so crazy it just might work. :) Might try a

Metadata wil be the death of me yet.
Does anyone know (outside of Maclink Plus) if there's a way of re-writing
files en masse so they display their file extension?

Hmm, this may simply add more weight to the TV's for DVD only argument,
but The West Wing, The Sopranos, Angel (well this season anyway) and (every
now and then) Alias are fun shows to watch.
Futurama was good of course, and I enjoy new episodes of the Simpsons ...
and there's always the Movie
Hi David, Mark, Mark,
Frontpage renders like this on Macs all the time. I think it's something to
do with the way it writes path names (using both back and forward slashes,
which Macs don't like) but don't quote me.
Maybe downloading a 30 trial of either Golive or DreamWeaver and cleaning up
Kev, if you've got access to a video camera that has firewire, you can
record to the camera from a VCR, then copy from the camera to the Mac. There
