    Hi, shaun,

    hm, works for me...?

    It reminded me of my active days in publishing, when I was at a client who just published a newspaper-like brochure (articles and photos) and there was only one mistake on the page: The main and largest headline read "Headline goes here!" ;-)

    Actually they hired me for giving them advice how to avoid such things.

    Best
    Matthias

     We had a box of slick 4 color brochures dropped off at our paper one day (old paper I worked for). Beautiful piece except that no one at the print shop had seen that every font in the brochure had defaulted to Courier....

     Scroll on down for the usual battle. Funny how passionate people can be in the Quark v ID debate.

    Mind you I love Quark and have done since v3.

    I just had some banners made up for the local pre school so they could hang them around the place... The file contained a PSD of a cartoon of the school on a green background with some transparency... They printed everything and it came back as a white silhouette of the image against the green background.... Classic morons not checking their work.... after I finished laughing, I made the phone call...
