Question
QUESTION: Two of us are both working on the same projects using InDesign and Illustrator.  One is using the software on PC and one on Mac.  Will we be able to go back and forth between the two platforms and easily add, edit, etc. the projects?

ANSWER: yes.

QUESTION: Is there anything special we need to do?  Must we have the same versions of the software?  Is it important that the project is started on the PC platform?  or on the Mac?

ANSWER: nope.

now, unless you have CS3, you can't install the same adobe programs onto each other. But yes, the work can go across platforms.

If you go onto different versions, make sure that the one who has the higher saves to the lower version.

QUESTION: thanks.  
I'm not understanding  
"unless you have CS3, you can't install the same adobe programs onto each other."

Answer
When installing, the adobe programs are not dual compatible, unless you have CS3.

Other than that, you're good to go.

short answer:
yes - you can work on dual interfaces
no - there's nothing special you have to do


now, start working ;)
