If you are preparing TIFFs, you might notice when saving them that there are
options to do with "Macintosh" or "IBM PC". They have different byte orders.
What I do for printing jobs is submit both because I am not always sure what
platform the printer use. If I am pressed I choose PC because Macs usually
can handle more (because they have to) but PCs can't (because they don't
have to). In your case, you know they want for Mac.
jpgs and gifs are these two platform independent and you need not worry...
