Al, Could you do everyone a favor and get Word to convert this to a plain ASCII text file before you send it to ? It will be smaller, it won't use as much disk space either on Yahoo or on people's PCs, it'll download faster, and people who don't feel like giving Bill Gates several hundred dollars will still be able to read it easily.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Most files that are sent to me for inclusion in the Files section I convert to Adobe PDF. That way everyone can read them and the authors can take advantage of formatting/fonts/color etc. - > > > Date: 2004/07/18 Sun AM 11:26:52 EDT > To: surfacehippy > Subject: Re: BELGIAN TIPS - How do I upload my file?? > > > > Follwing the many requests I received from Belgian-bound and/or > > Belgian-interested surface hippies, I prepared a word file which > > includes all of the travel, surgery and other useful tips and info > > that, as a long time Brussels resident, I could put together. > > > > My intention is to upload it in the FILES section of the Surface > > Hippy Group, so that it can be available to all interested members. > > Al, > > Could you do everyone a favor and get Word to convert this to a plain > ASCII text file before you send it to ?
