Last time I had this as an issue was in Quark 4 and 5,
so this may be differnet in the newest versions, but
the only problem I had moving files back and forth was
with "dingbat" type symbols like bullets. They often
changed from one style to the other when going across
the platforms. But as long as you didn't fuss with them,
they changed back when you returned to the original
platform. If you're not in a 2-way exchange situation,
this shouldn't be a problem. OTOH, if you have the
resources to have both, it never hurts to be able to view
a file in its original platform in case you're not sure
what you're supposed to be seeing. What happened to the
Quark seats that were used to create the files in the first
place?

So, should I order Quark for Mac and be on the safe side
despite the inconvenience of having to share a machine? Or
is the compatibility between the two platform versions good
enough that I can buy Quark for Windows without any x-platform worries???
