The present invention relates to a graphics file converter between a Macintosh computer and an IBM-PC, and more particularly to a hardware device that converts graphics files between an Apple Macintosh computer and an IBM-PC and its compatibles. Domestic personal computers have grown rapidly in recent years for the purpose of office automation for IBM-PC and its compatibles, and demand for Macintosh computers is increasing due to the recent spread of electronic publishing systems and computer graphics. This necessitated software compatibility between the Macintosh and IBM-PC. Currently, it is not a problem if the capacity of the file is small, such as a text document, because the file is copied or changed by a system which is used by copying the file using the floppy disk or by using the RS-232c. However, (RS-232c) can not be stored on a floppy disk when the file size is large, the parallel speed card is installed inside the IBM-PC and the Macintosh computer to solve the problem that the transfer speed is very slow. The hardware for high-speed communication between Macintosh computers and IBM-PC by means of hardware for line withdrawal for parallel communication and file conversion transfer between IBM-PC and Macintosh computer, and file change transmission operation software on IBM-PC and Macintosh computer The purpose of the file converter is to provide.;As described above, the present invention enables high-speed communication when a file size such as a graphic file is large, and maximizes software compatibility between a Macintosh computer and an IBM-PC, thereby improving the operation efficiency of the system.
