How to make mud out of crystal-clear water...
So I just got a call from a lady working at a magazine that received a final high-res PDFX1a file from me through their FTP. My procedure is to put the file on their FTP, take a snapshot of the FTP window, showing the file is there. Then I rasterize the file in Photoshop, set the word "VISUAL" in big red letters, save it as an RGB jpeg and call it "visual.jpg". I then e-mail the magazine explaining that I just put the file on the FTP, that the file name is "blabla.pdf", that I include both a snapshot of the FTP window and a low res jpeg of what the file should look like with the e-mail message. Then ship a proof to the magazine. So the lady was all upset thinking I uploaded the wrong version of the file because the word "VISUAL" was not showing on the proof she received!!!
