Help! As a long time WP Mac user, I've had a terrible time converting to OSX, using WP in Classic mode, and ultimately converting many large files via RTF...
There is a known bug in the 3.1 version that gives you this "disk full" error on disk volumes that are over 2 GB in size (there is a slight chance it will work...
I would recommend two things. 1) Upgrade to WP 3.5e, which is downloadable at this site. You should then be able to open these WP 3.1 files. However, IF 2)...

Daryl, Your drag and drop method of moving things from a WP doc to a W doc is excellent, and I am able to move graphic objects like old EPS files this way. But...
