I used to be able to make Word sing...and probably still could, but I don't use it anymore. But even doing this project in Pages, I realized how much I don't use word processors or print anymore.
One more reason for the rollers in the printer to harden up...they never get used. I'm sure I'll find out when I try to print some business cards for this week's convention. Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.

But what is weird is that a couple of the bigger ad agencies I work with, and their clients, send me stuff in ppt. Even voiceover scripts!
Nokia started it. Their HQ in Keilalahti, Espoo is still called 'Powerpoint Heaven'. Everything there is focused around the meeting rooms: long tables, an LCD projector and the screen. Almost the entire DNA of Nokia is in all those ppts, because they evolve, slides are dropped, bits become metafiles, groups add more depth (more slides) etc. Now it seems the marketing business is conducted through presentations.
There has long been a law in Finland (or a series of laws) that require the makers of TV programs, books, records, CDs magazines, brochures, radio tapes etc to file two copies with one of the archiving organizations. How this is going to work in a cloud, I don't know. You can't be me, I'm taken
But it shore is some pretty. And so is that Keynote application. I love designing in it. But there are some of those same outline issues. Somehow, they just won't finish the product.
And the trouble of stripping thing when transferred from Mac Pages and Mac Keynote to iPad Pages and Keynote is reprehensible.
For archiving, by the way, see AMPAS - The Digital Dilemma Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
