I’m up too late. Why?
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO CONVERT FILES!?!
I’ve had a couple offers from folks, and I think I’m getting ready to just bite the bullet.
I’ll explain the problem so maybe someone more savvy can help – if you have NO interest in the rantings of a PC user with a MAC problem, I’ll see ya Weds… Otherwise, I ask you to please, if you are the type that tries to help, read what I’ve done so I don’t have to say ‘Tried it’ over and over.. and I apologize for the snippiness, but this was supposed to be a relaxing evening to myself when I decided dumbly to try and work on Book 3 again.
Here’s the situation. I did all of the strips from Book 3 on a Mac. Trying to get old Mac Illustrator files to work on current versions of PC Illustrator is like trying to make a baby do calculus.. it just don’t work.. dumbly, you can SEE previews of them, but they won’t open in: Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat, Elements, Word, Powerpoint, GiMP, Paint, or going into the files as pure text and manually altering them.
The ONLY way it seems I’m going to get this done is by finding a Mac and converting them all to EPS… then doing the edit work on the EPS files.
So I’m giving up and going to go play Terraria or Minecraft or Solitaire..
Gnite,

You do realise that in the light of the comic the only way you could get away with converting files is through baptism?
“I’m just a Po-boy, nobody loves me.”
You might be able to find a program online that allows you to convert the Mac illustrator files. I wouldn’t know… but it’s worth a try?
I´ve grown fond of Po…. Is it time for one of his exwifes to appear? 😛
