Give me your feedback

Thanks, Kathy

 

[Kathytnt]

I personally already caught on misspelled word

 

[ljeffries]

I think it looks great! There are several places where you and your are not correct. 'fill in you information...' or something like that.

 

[Kathytnt]

That was one of the mistakes I caught Thanks

If you are going to send it as a word document to anyone, I would save it with the fonts embedded. There were places where I know you have the type set in a speciality font, but since some of those fonts are not on my computer, the text appears on my screen as Courier.
Other than that, it looks nice.

 

[Kathytnt]

How do you embed the fonts???

 

[katie0128]

How do you embed the fonts???

Save As
Tools (in the save dialog box)
Save Options
Embed TrueType Fonts (check box)
Embed characters in use only (check box)
~the other box is checked by default, leave it that way
Save

Your file will be larger with the embedded fonts, that's why you want to embed only the characters that you are using. Try it and repost... I'll let you know if I can read it the right way.

I have to be to wrok very early for a pre-store opening meeting I will work more on it tomorrow Thanks

 

[Kathytnt]

I am trying to remember I think someone tole me that keying (r) causes the registered trademark symbol to show up. This is a modification of a template for something did in May

Kathy-your boxes are cutting off at the bottom. What is your contest? I've looked on your website. I'm sure you don't want to post anything about it in you PWS until you've told your people about it, but what is the contest? What is the prize?

 

[Kathytnt]

Gift Certificates and Cookbooks - Easy to ship items I won't be sending out the flyer until it's posted on the website

The thing that is nice about doing the contact page is I can actually print out a page at a time to keep track of people and put the entries in a box

You can get an entry in the drawing for
Booking a cooking or catalog show
Becoming a consultant
Updating your contact information
Purchasing any cookare item
Purchasing $50 or more
Creating a bridal registry
Booking a Bridal Shower
Referring a friend


You get the idea - Not all involve spending any money to get entries

 

[Kathytnt]

When I print the Page here it is not cutting off the boxes

 

[katie0128]

My observations...

Fundraisers doesn't have a "d" in it
The "R"'s and comma in Real Food, Real Fast don't show up
You have two spaces between "new car," and "have"

Other than those, it looks really good... much better now that your pretty fonts show up properly!!!

FUNdraisers does have a d in it. It is a FUND raiser.

 

[katie0128]

FUNdraisers does have a d in it. It is a FUND raiser.

I meant that on her flyer she is missing the "d"... she has "FUNraisers" when it should be "FUNdraisers"

 

[Kathytnt]

Well I actually was enphasizing the Fun part and intentionally dropped the d - but if it seems too weird I can add it back

 

[Kathytnt]

That is weird that the fonts are not showing up because where I look at it here and print it they show up fine

Just goes to show that depending on the version and the computer youdon't really know what it is going to look like

This is the latest

I love it! Will you tell us how your contests are going? I peeked on your site and saw your heels & Hills contest... what's that? I LOVE your wedding vendors area - very smart!!! I assume these companies are also encouraging the registry? Any results? Thanks for showing what you are doing.

I would change the "Your Life your way" blurb a bit to say

how do you save with embedded?

 

[chef_kimmo]

Susan,

Look a couple posts after Katie's, she tells how to do it about 2 or 3 later because Kathy asked the same thing

 

[Just Peachy]

Great flyerThanks for the great idea. I wanted to tell you that you can hide the grammer and spelling lines on the document by going into tools, options, spelling and grammar, and checking the boxes that apply.

Thanks for the work.

Can't change contact infoI can't change anything on the document with the embedded fonts. Is this inherient?
Thanks

 

[katie0128]

If you embed only the characters in use, Yes. What that means is that only the characters from the font that were in the file when you saved it were saved. What I would do is unembed (not sure if that is a word) the font, make all the changes you want and when you are completely done, embed the font again.

You can save it without checking the "Embed characters in use only" check box. This will save all the characters available in every special font you have, however, it will dramatically increase the size of your file.

Make sense?

THe Hills and Heels contest was a Half-marathon that I was an InKind sponosor for - What that means is that I gave prizes for the winners or the silent auction. This allowed me to put a flyer in every goodie bag for the participants. Didn't get a huge response but I have a kew potential customers/shows from it.

I am hoping with this contest that I can get -mail and address info updated and keep in touch with my contact list too

It's going to be hard to fit all the recruiting info into that box but the number would be important. Where did we get this number??? I saw it on here but I don't remember sing it on the e-mail

 

[Kathytnt]

Perhaps I should ask a quiz question and give an extra ticket in the drawing if they call the opportunity line and give me the name of the person who tells her story on the call. Nancy Jo is my NED.
