Just a quick overview of my situation - have been using LinoColor 5 and 6 for a long time on OS9 to drive the above mentioned Linotype S3300 (rather old drum scanner for those that don't know
).
Am getting to a stage where all our other machines in the company have been moved to OSX, and I am getting pressured to upgrade my machine too.
The one sticking point is Linocolor. I do understand that OS9 applications can run within OSX, but it seems that upon trying to set up Linocolor on another OSX based machine - for some reason the Linocolor OS9 Installer just wouldn't run.
Anyway - I was sure I had been told in the past that there was a version of Linocolor available for OSX. However, after much searching for updates or information of any kind - I have come to the conclusion that the version 6.0.10 / OS9 seems to be the last one available?
During my search for Linocolor updates I became aware of the SilverFast software - with many comments pointing to SilverFast being much better than Linocolor ever was - not to mention the fact it also runs natively is OSX, is still actively supported, etc.
I straight away came to this site, saw demos available and went about downloading one.
However, I was quite disappointed to not see the scanner I use under the manufacturers listing.
Is the Linotype S3300 actually supported in the full version of SilverFast?
If so, is there anyway I can obtain the Linotype S3300 version of the SilverFast demo?
Thanks for any help...
Michael
