Marketing execs should watch more Sesame Street
I can understand that maybe it is difficult for some people to calculate proportions for enlargements and reductions in their head. But 8½” x 11″ is not a square. I think that much should be easy enough for just about anyone to understand. Next time I have to call somebody up to explain this to them…
