Yes. That's because all information has to be embedded in a PDF file so that
it display identically on all computers (which is the point of this thread).

Also, are PDF larger in size?

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
