Let me be clear. I am not an apple fanboy by any means. I have never owned an apple product before, but am thinking that it might be time to start.
I write a pen and paper RPG that is available for sale online in PDF format. I also want it to be available for print on demand services. but in order to make a PDF and cover that work in that format, i would need new software. Something about imbedding fonts in the PDF. MACs have been recommended to me because of their usefulness in desktop publishing and all that stuff. Really all the work has already been done in Micrsoft word, i just need to convert it to a PDF with imbedded fonts on the MAC. I am not sure it it would be worth my time and energy learning new hardware and software to get the MAC, but i want to put out a professional looking product. Is a MAC worth it.
Next, i need to make a website for my game. Not much, but it needs to look professional. Again, i understand that MACs are good at this stuff. I can code HTML a bit. But not to the level i need to create a professional looking website.
Lastly. My Dell desktop just crashed hard. very hard. i need a new computer anyway. My PC laptop still seems to have some time left, so i am just needing a replacement desktop. I figured this is as good a time to get a MAC as any.
Help? comments? Questions? opinions?
