I feel like a bonehead for asking this one, but I have scoured the manual, only to come up empty-handed. What is the best way to send a PowerCadd file via email which can be worked with by another user of PowerCadd?
Thanks. -MP |

put them in a .zip file to maintain the file type and creator.
if you don't compress them, just use engsw's little app to repair them http://www.engsw.com/downloads/utilities/

If you are experiencing problems you can easily Zip the files using the Create Archive option in the Finders contextual menu. Just control-click (or right mouse button if you have one) on a file or folder in the Finder and select the Create Archive option. The Zip format is much more internet friendly and should be passed along without any problems.
The files are then easily un-Zipped at the other end by double-clicking on them.
