I'm trying to send some information from My Mac, some web archives that were saved to a Pc computer.

Problem is when I send them the Pc user states they are unable to open the files because it was created with a Mac.

So how in the world am I supposed to do this, PLEASE HELP

Try going into safari, clicking File->Save As and than in that menu make sure it is set to "Page Source" not "Web Archive"

I figured it out, that is not what I wanted to do as the files I already named and organized.

What I need to do was open the file , click print and then save as a PDF.

By saving it as a PDF any computer can open it, thanks to a Mod at another forum for the help

,peace

Yes, but that just creates an image of the website, just like taking a screenshot.

Why not just give them the web address?
