In terms of logical recovery, can a PC be used to recover data from a Mac (HFS) drive?

I am using R-Studio which does recognize HFS partitions but I am just wondering whether it will maximize the recovery in just using a Windows PC + R-Studio for logical data recovery?

Opinions? Advice? Experience...all welcome.

Also MacDrive is a useful tool to have on your PC based recovery stations...

You can have problems when special characters (supported by mac but not by pc) are used.
