Transferring Files to ChemDraw/Plus 3.1 for the Macintosh


Use the following procedure to transfer a ChemDraw for Windows file to ChemDraw/Plus 3.1 for the Macintosh. A file translator such as PC Exchange or Apple File Exchange must be running on your Macintosh.

To transfer from Windows to ChemDraw/Plus 3.1 for the Macintosh:
1. In ChemDraw for Windows, save the file in the ChemDraw (.chm) format.
2. Insert the disk with the ChemDraw for Windows files into the Mac floppy drive.
3. If you are using PC Exchange, double click the floppy disk icon to display the files.
4. From the Control Panels, select PC Exchange.
5. Select Add.
6. Change the DOS suffix to .chm.
7. In the application selection, find CSC ChemDraw on your Mac and click once to highlight the selection.
8. Change the document type to CHMS.

If you are using a translator other than PC Exchange, you need to use an editor such as ResEdit or Disktop to change the type and creator of the files being transferred. The type should be "CHMS" and the creator should be "CHMD."
