PCs use a gamma of 2.2 (much darker) and a white point that ranges all
So when you develop graphics on a Mac and they look fine on a 1.8 gamma
This is a problem that every cross-platform designer faces and you have
Font size is another big issue but a different can of worms.
Some software now actually simulates the way a graphic will look on a Mac
In a perfect world, wher Colorsync would be available cross-platform
