Photography Question

Saving Mac or PC


After editing in PE2 and I choose to save my file, I have an option whether to save as PC or Mac. If I save as Mac then create a CD, will the files be able to be shown on Mac computers? I have a PC, but would like to submit a CD to a publisher who accepts images formatted for Mac. Sounds like a dumb question, but I'm not sure. Thanks!

  Darlene, I assume you are saving TIFF files and have the choice. As long as they are being opened in Photoshop Elements or full version, they will be able to be opened by either platform. The trouble will come if a Windows machine running another ap such as Word, or something will not be able to access the Windows files. So if they are using a version of Photoshop it really will not matter.
