Hi :) When returning or just going through old emails it helps to start at the most recent first. That way you can save yourself the effort of replying to threads that have already been solved.
I found that moving to an email client that threads messages was a huge boon. GMail calls them "conversations" rather than threads but it's about the same. VERY useful! Now it's fairly easy for me to see all (well, most) related emails that follow on from each other and maybe reply to points from each different person in a single email. Fantastic!! Wrt names of things. I've heard people use the same words to describe both types of things. I've even heard booklets/brochures being called "flyers". I've not heard brochures/booklets being called "gatefold leaflets/flyers" yet though so i tend to reserve that word for the style Tim was talking about Regards from Tom :) On 25 September 2014 13:34, Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster < [email protected]> wrote: > On 09/25/2014 08:00 AM, Brian Barker wrote: > >> At 07:24 25/09/2014 -0400, Tim Lungstrom wrote: >> >>> As for the "brochure" page formatting, I do not use the "printing >>> option" but manually create the three columns per sheet side and choose the >>> margins/borders then so it is easier for me to create what I need and see >>> the results without waiting for the printing stage. >>> >> >> But you are missing the point of the original question, in fact.
