These particular data files were not for mailing
They were for cards, badges, and envelopes
the customer redid the data with shorter titles for the badges.
the didn't like the small font they ended up with.  ;D

I had a training course to take online and they showed this and I thought of you, Tracy

I've always said, I can fit anything you want into any space you want, but I can't guarantee you'll be able to read it when I do. I once did a newspaper ad in 4 pt. condensed type because the customer wouldn't pay for anything larger than a 1 column by 1 inch.

Sounds like one of those companies that give employees fancy titles rather than raises.

Sometimes you just have to show them how shitty it looks with their bad data for them to understand.

Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a night. But set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

Definitely. You have to stick it under their noses.
