I found a local printer for my images. Here is a quote from the e-mail I got.

We print from Photoshop files and TIFF files (that are a minimum of 240dpi full size image)
from hybrid CD's (We are Mac based) that are Mac compatible.

I need to create a Mac compatible CD from my PC. Does anyone have any knowledge of a good freeware program that I could do this in? Also should I save my TIFF images in MAC mode?

Being a mac user, that's a somewhat odd comment. I've read CD's from all manner of windows machines without a problem. I'd think that if you used XP's own burning software you'd be fine. I'm not familiar enough with aftermarket programs (Nero, etc..) to know whether or not they'd cause a problem.

Hope this helps!

If they are using os9, it could be an issue. If they are using OS X it should be fairly simple, as it will read anything. Many of those print houses are still using early versions of OS 9, and PS 6/7.
