Oddly Enough, The Design World Does NOT Revolve Around Microsoft Word!

No, I don't design brochures in Word. I use a real layout program, like Pagemaker or Photoshop.

No, I don't design our website and our e-mail blasts in Word. I use Dreamweaver. (Yes, I know you can craft masterpieces using plain ol' HTML in Notepad, Godfrey, but that's kinda time-consuming to the average human being.)

But, to be accomodating to the desires of a few, I have to cut and paste things in and out of Word. Blech.

I can't stand Word as an HTML editor. It sticks it's own messed up code in and it's just a headache to get rid of it to format the pages the way you want them to look.

Dreamweaver has this way-cool "clean up Word html" command that saves my bacon.

Yep. Gotta cut and paste because people don't want to have to write things out on a print-out.
