Oh the fun when you coordinate a document across different regions ;-)
Eg send a document to my peers in India, the edit it and boom - pige
sizes get "corrected" etc. They send it back to me and boom lots of work
for me.
This all boils down however to a misunderstanding IMHO. *Content* and
*display* are separate concepts. The time of document centric viewwing
should be gone. But that is another topic altogether ;-)
