FLASH: File size. PC > Mac

[Paul Kilgour]

Dear all,


Just a little query regarding odd file sizes.


Yesterday I e-mailed a file to Eric Smollin, who very kindly sorted out my

Tell Target problem for me. Thanks again Eric. I use a Mac, and the original

file size that I sent to him was 129K (122,880 bytes). When I recieved it

back with the correct Tell Target information sorted out, it was 258K

(236,032 bytes). Almost double the size. The file itself was virtually

unchanged apart from the correct Action info.


Is this a common thing when transfering files from Mac to PC and vice versa?

Do Macs make smaller files than PC's? I used a PC for a couple of years

(Quark, Freehand, Photoshop etc), and I don't remember the files sizes being

significantly different from Mac. Is this just a Flash thing?


Just curious.


Regards,


Paul.
