Welcome to SysOpt :t

.sit files are compressed archives for the Mac, .bmap files are to do with Mac screen fonts and .afm files contain information about "Adobe Font Metrics". StuffIt Expander (http://www.stuffit.com/win/expander/index.html) might be able to handle .sits, but I don't know of any apps for the other two. Since .bmap files are Mac specific, I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to do.

try Proactiv - get up early in the a.m. - lots of people will you make your rich, clear up your skin - grow your hair back (or glue some on top), sell you oldies but moldies that only my grandparents would listen too.....

sorry fishy - but a little humor (albeit feeble, particlularly my attempts) amongst all this never hurts :)

"BMAPand AFM files are Mac screen fonts (.bmap files). The screen font files do not have any standard name (although they frequently have the extension .bmap). The screen fonts have file type "FFIL" which, in combination with some" common sense, is usually sufficient to identify them."

quote from this link - here (http://www.faqs.org/faqs/fonts-faq/part8/) - might be helpful - but not sure you want to be getting at MAC fonts - if you're opening a word or other document, many times the app may have a converter to use MS fonts - if it's a picture file with fonts you may want to have the sender save it, if possible in a MS compatible format - most MAC have that ability, even if it's pasted in an app (like word or something) that works across both platforms

I found this site which purports to be the original sit creator of all time, nowt to do with chocolate or chips, and should allow you to use the files,

http://www.stuffit.com/win/expander/index.html


and it's free.:D

I agree, why else would I have replied in olde English? Contrary to popular opinion, Brits don't actually talk like that y'know ;)

Anybody have a mac. I can send you files and maybe you could save them in a .jpeg or some format that can be oped on a desktop pc.

Anyone??

:D :t

I had two macs the other day, but really, I prefer Burgerking. I think there could be a relationship there, macs and sits, spooky eh?

[Sam sam]

Can I send you the files???

[Ammok]

no, download stuffit and use the expander, that will get the sits sorted. after that we'll try the others. only way to learn i'm afriad, but we'll keep with you till you get there.:)
