I am using Revolution professionally to develop educational software. This
is my first project with Rev, and so far it is going very well.
As far as cross-platform issues, most of them come from font issues. For
the most part, Rev does a great job at compensating for font sizes. Mac
fonts, however, take up more space vertically. I find these cosmetic
issues easy to deal with using Profile. I have a Win Profile and a Mac
profile and switch between them based on the platform at the start up of
the program.
