    a world of pain!

    Actually, font issues. I was disappointed my Type1 PC fonts weren't even recognized by the Mac and that Windows TT weren't always properly imported and if they were, they sometimes behaved differently. There were times I had to go back to Windows to edit a Windows-produced .fla because of strange font issues (ie. weird kerning).

    I like my Mac, but Adobe Suite still feels like it was natively made for Windows to me, never got used to the background transparency with the desktop beneath.. it's distracting.
    ie. in photoshop there isn't a setting where you can tile 2 images next to each other and have a solid background below. It's how it has been on the Mac since forever, but for me it's an usability flaw that Windows version is free from.

    • you can turn the background on with cs3 on a mac by pressing "f" oncejkmohr
    • sometimes .fla between systems won't open at all, also export path in these differ..rafalski
    • thanks jkmor, but it's not the same, I mean background + tiled imagesrafalski
    • Well I think having a background is weird! (Can't see reference material) but then I'm used to lots of apps at once...ribit
