FLASH: PC and MAC file sizes

[Gareth Squire]

Hello all,


Can anyone answer why the following occurs:


We are working on a large website in a team on a combination of PC's and

MAC's and we have noticed the following occurring with the file size of the

FLA. The file is transferred from a MAC to the PC and registers in at 3.8

meg, if the file is then opened on the PC and immediately saved with no

changes the file size is 4.5 meg. What is going on here, surely the fla is

the base code of flash files and as such there shouldn't be any difference

between MAC and PC and what exactly is the PC adding?


This isn't a problem as such, we are just intrigued to know what is

happening,


TIA
