TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I had a problem with *.dat files (a font that I asked someone to send me)
and the person who sent them was using a PC but told me that the files had
been created (?) on a MAC. So this may not be an e-mail problem, but a
platform problem.
There are supposed to be conversion programs, but the IT guy (aka the
in-house hacker) who was trying to help me couldn't find one to work on
*.dat files.
By the way, if anyone has Spectrum MT for PC and would like to share, I
would be grateful.
