- If the recipient also uses a Mac, the usual thing is to use Binhex format.
- To save space, you could compress it first, with Stuffit or CompactPro.
- Stuffit (at least) also has a menu option to do the Binhex encoding.
-
- If the recipient does not use a Mac, save the file in a format he can read
- (such as GIF or JPEG) and uuencode the result.
