  16. I convert a lot of Mac fonts for my PC, and prior to Executor, I
  17. would use Mac-ette (a good Mac disk reader) to copy them over before
  18. running some conversion utilities.
  19.  
  20. Fonts copied via Executor/DOS, however, give me errors when I attempt
  21. to convert them. The same font copied via Mac-ette works fine. This
  22. leads me to believe that the resource fork (which is where the
  23. goods reside in a Mac font) is not handled with 100% accuracy for
  24. this particular purpose. 
  25.  
  26. Anybody have a similar difficulty with fonts?
