TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
(I, too, had to pick myself up off of the floor when I saw that Geoff had a
question!) ;-)
This discussion is very timely. I need to look at alternatives to sending a
PDF of a 3-6 page newletter out to a broad audience (frequency: each month).
I did go into my Word file and selected "Send to Mail Recipient" (no
attachment) as Keith recommended, and the initial result was a tiny bit
messy, but it worked! PLUS, the file size went from over 800kb in PDF to
557kb in Outlook. I was happy about that. When I looked at the new Outlook
message's "View Source," I saw that I could clean up the little messies, and
maybe, maybe make this work. I'll have to run a sample by my IT area.
So, those who are also interested, let's keep discussing this topic. It's
very timely and relevant to my current projects. If I learn anything, I'll
share. Thanks!
