I don't know which is worse. Clients so stupid and uncaring that they will entrust their project to someone who doesn't even know a standard piece of software, or "designers" with so much gall that they can go out and solicit jobs BEFORE they have an idea how they can do it. I mean how do you quote on a job if you don't know how long it will take? Of course the other point is Quark is only a tool. Spending a bundle in the tool department of Sears does not make me a carpenter, getting quark does not make me a designer or layout artist or prepress operator. So yeah, you can learn the basics of quark in a few days. What about prudent use of white space? What about correct kerning? What about rivers? What about margin creep? What about color seps? > Please respond at mark.gottlieb@renp.com This is the part I love best. "I want my answer but I can't be bothered to come back and check your #*&^$# newsgroup. So drop the answer right into my lap. And bring a pizza and some beer while you're at it." FU!
