We get a camera ready ad from an ad service in PDF format. The mac would not open it. Send the file to IT guy that handles PC’s in the department as ask him to open it and work it. He does, sends it back and it works.

The Mac wouldn't open a PDF????? I find that hard to believe. That simply does not make sense. I have never run into a PDF that I could not open on a modern Mac. Again, an OS X Mac uses Display PDF for its screen. . . and creating a PDF on a Mac does not even require Adobe Acrobat. . . it's a function of the operating system, built in.

That’s our departments experience (and yes we still have artists in the department complaining the Macs are gone).

The reason they are complaining is that THEIR productivity has suffered. We know that happens. Your claims fly in the face of our experience. ALL of your problems obviously stemmed from an incompetent IT department.

I’m also a graphic artist, as well as a layout guy, and I couldn’t work without my Wacom, the Adobe CC suite and my Mac Pro...it would so difficult.
