Hi Marty,

This probably isn't very scientific, but basically
what I do is the following:

--I like large type anyway so I tend to use larger
sizes.

--As I create any images, I do the toggle view in
Fireworks under "Edit" which shows the lighter version
of how it would render on a Mac.  (I believe that
PhotoShop and other graphics packages offer this
feature also.)

--Whenever I take a community college course in the
evenings, I try to go to one of the labs with Macs in
it and bring up my pages live before class starts.

Hope this helps.

Susan V.
