    I have a IBM Pentium 4 with XP and a gray G4 with OS10. I also have a fairly new 21 inch Mac Monitor. I want to have them both share the same monitor. They can both keep their own keyboard and mouse. That is not a problem. Can someone lead me to a reference on how to do this? Is it...

    Saving Quark files as eps problem

    Here is a question. I tried saving a Quark, (4.1 on a Mac, G4), file as an eps and then opened it in Photoshop. When I opened it in Photoshop (6.0), it had a grid pattern on it. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Has anyone run into this issue?

    Adobe Illustrator eps files and Pantone colors?

    This is for a 2 color job using pantone colors. When I save an eps file out of Adobe Illustrator 8 that has a Pantone color it saves it as a cvc color. Quark uses cv. As a result, I get 2 pantone colors in the color window in Quark. A cv (that I used in the document already) and a cvc from...

    video card suggestions

    Can anyone suggest a good 2d/3d videocard for a blue and white g3? I am doing Photoshop and desktop publishing. I have a 16 mb ATI card in my agp slot now and it does not seem to be cutting it. I am concerned about compatibility. Many cards do not say they will work with Mac. Thanks

    I have been using AI 9.1 for quite a while now with absolutely no problems. Suddenly, the entire program has slowed down. Especially when I try to drag pallets around or draw shapes.
