Others have told you to use .pdf files but they didn't tell you that "fancy
fonts" need to be embedded (if possible) if you want them to show up on your
recipients' computers.

As some of you know, I prepare our church newsletter and e-mail it to the
church. It is then printed and sent out by U.S. Mail. We are thinking of
sending it to members of the congregation by e-mail to save expense
(postage and paper) and also trees. However, I use a variety of clipart,
photos, borders, text boxes, and fonts. That sounds like "too much," but
I don't include everything in every newsletter, and many people have
thanked me for the changes I have made. The problem is that some items do
not "hold" on a page when I e-mail them to our secretary. In fact, one
person sends messages to me in Calibri. It is always set with 1.15
spacing. I often change it to single-spacing to fit properly within
certain areas of the newsletter--but when our secretary receives, it
sometimes reverts back to 1.15. That is easily set back to
single-spacing, but I am wondering if there is any way to save the
newsletter in such a way that it will be seen properly on a variety of
computers if we use e-mail for the congregation. In other words, I want to
make sure that page breaks are viewed properly, photos remain in place,
etc. Obviously, we will not have any control over the types of settings
that various recipients use.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
MaryL
