Well, you'd click if it interested you. Right?

PDF file size
... But what about the theory that people would prefer an email with
a PDF attachment? that sounded kinda strange to me ...
Exactly this discussion is currently going on in a ML for Media
people. They all agree to
Joseph,
When I don't click that link it's because I'm not interested at the moment or
too busy. Some of the things I get I read in intermittent fashion. If I had to
wait for an HTML page to load I might just sign off altogether. That's
happened.
Mostly, I think it's nice to offer people a choice

Hi Jac,
As far as I know, you need to get you Distiller working, because
Illustrator's PDF files are always huge (I think Illustrator treats it all
like a giant graphic). I convert a lot of meeting minutes into PDFs at
work, and usually the size is the same (if not smaller) than the Word
? that sounded kinda strange to me but seeing as how the guy my
client was talking to is in marketing I thought I'd better say nothing...
cheers again
jac.

Jac, I have no idea about the PDF is better than HTML for emails concept
:-) Does not make a lot of sense to me - you don't need any special
programs to read HTML emails (and if they are done well, the text will
still come through even when HTML is disabled), but with PDF email the
recepient will
Hey, Jac, I was doing something similar a while back and don't remember the
specific on the tricky Distiller issue, but I think I found the answer in
the Read Me file for Acrobat 5. It's a common problem but an easy fix as I
recall.
Best,
Mike

Hi everyone,
I have a client who wants to send out a newsletter by email to his mailing
list, no problem there now this is where it gets strange - he spoke to a
guy who does marketing and he told my client that because a lot of people
don't want HTML emails, the better option is to do a PDF
I do not prefer PDF to anything more readable. If Acrobat Reader
can't find the specified font, it provides the least readable
alternative. I often have to resize to fit my full desktop and/or do
a lot of scrolling which people hate.
Maybe whoever told you that their people would prefer a pdf
Personally I prefer plain text emails and certainly would not want a pdf
attachment arriving in my in box, it would (and they do) get deleted
unread!, along with the word documents that some marketing geniuses advise
their clients to send out with 'marketing' emails.
Seriously though jac,
this page got since you sent
your mailing...
