can someone please help me? I hope this is the right forum. my typesetter is complaining because I SENT her a 290 PAGE document in rich text format, and she said they were 290 single files. she wants me to SEND that document, (manuscript), in one large file. How do I do that? I have windows xp. I think she has a macintosh. any advice would be greatly appreciated.   :-?

AtreyhuI don't have a clue but try this:

Open the .rtf file with Wordpad then save the file in .txt format.

Good luckEek - don't do that!  Your paragraph breaks will be COMPLETELY screwed up, and any formatting you want to retain (advisory to your typesetter) will be lost.

Please advise: what program are you composing your document in?  What program is your typesetter using?As an aside to this - If you regularly move data between a Windows and a MAC box, [highlight]Stuffit[/highlight], the dé facto MAC archiver, is available in Win32 flavour.thank you for your replies. robpomeroy, I used microsoft windows to write the document. and my typesetter has a macintosh. thanks for any advice.I think Rob wanted to know what actual programs were used on both machines.hello
I couldn't tell you what actual program the typesetter uses. but thanks for your help anyway. I've given up trying to LEARN. let her earn her money. thanks.  Well, that's one approach....  Argh.  I was scenting a solution as well.  Bah.
