ClarisWorks for Win v3.0

ClarisWorks version 3.0 for Windows; Danish, English, French and German language install sets:

Cross-platform compatibility

ClarisWorks 3.0 for Windows has the same file format and features as ClarisWorks 3.0 for Macintosh. If you work with both Windows and Macintosh versions of ClarisWorks, or if you collaborate with colleagues who use ClarisWorks 3.0 for Macintosh, you can work without translating files or learning a different program.

ClarisWorks 3.0 for Windows opens and saves files that are fully compatible with ClarisWorks for Macintosh versions 3.0, 2.1, or 2.0, so you can use existing Macintosh 2.x files and/or share work with colleagues using version 2.x. Consequently, you can create a ClarisWorks document on Windows and edit it on a Macintosh computer or vice versa.
