Which goes back to my original statement: graphics designers looks at
documents as if it was ART: style, placement, beauty, often
sacrificing document compatibility for the sake of "beauty" aka
pixel-perfect positioning, etc. and using bitmaps when in reality
bitmaps are not needed.
Document consumers (readers) want to read information, not be
impressed by the graphics designer set of fonts or cool shades.
