About the Book

Millions of Macintosh users are searching for solutions that enable them to keep their Macs while others around them are using Windows, Linux, and other platforms. Thousands of sysadmins are looking for ways to support Mac and Windows users together, without complicating life. For both groups, The Cross-Platform Mac Handbook delivers comprehensive solutions covering every aspect of Mac cross-platform integration! The Cross-Platform Mac Handbook brings together information you'd otherwise have to waste time searching for -- if you could find it at all! Learn the best ways to exchange and convert files between platforms; and how to enable Mac support on Windows NT Server, NetWare, and UNIX/Linux platforms. Discover great cross-platform tips and solutions for Photoshop, Microsoft Office, QuarkXPress, FileMaker Pro, Quicken, and Appleworks; and the best ways to manage fonts, printing, and backup in cross-platform environments.

Finally, learn how to integrate your Mac with Palm, Windows CE, and other PDAs. Why shouldn't you have the computer you really want? With The Cross-Platform Mac Handbook, you can!
