Re: 8 bit shrinkit question

Michael,

Well, you are partly right,I use a PC then do the floppy-shuffle to get it
to the GS via a Mac. Funny that I've never run into this problem before.
OTOH, I have upgraded the Mac O.S. recently to 7.6.1. I'll try some of the
other's I'd done prior to the upgrade to see if they still work.

I'll try UnForkIt too.

thanks,

Mark
