Re: Shrink Files

Thanks for the info.

What I did was download these files using an FTP program on a PC.  Then I
ftp'ed them over to my Mac, then appletalked to them to the GS.  (I know,
just download them to the Mac... :) ) So the problem is they went to my PC
first?  The Mac FTP, Hefty (I think it is) was the FTP program on my Mac.
That should have translated the files to the correct forks right?   I like
to use the PC because, 1) The FTP program I have is free :), 2) it is alot
easier to use that any of the MAC ftp programs I have tried.  I will try and
FTP straight to the MAC and then over to the GS and see if that fixes my
problems.
