Why do people insist on writing texts in Word-format and attaching Word-documents to e-mail-documents? I mean, they’re all text aren’t they? If you want to send me a text, just send it. In an email.
And if you want to do a layout of something, using the software of you’re choice of course (if you still insist on using Word, you might need some specialist care), please send it to me as a PDF. The whole point of laying something out is that I’ll get it in that exact format, right? Regardless of platform, installed typefaces, etc. Then PDF me please. Portable Document Format, kind of speaks for itself right? (Oh, by the way, the same goes for “Powerpoints” if you ask me).
That’s it. These simple step will end wars and save marriages.
