- Won't work for him, Joel. Save-a-tree only works with TEXT files, last
- I checked, and Steve has a Word file -- that's part of his problem as
- he doesn't know Word and it gets messed up when he converts to WN and
- it's got lots of fonts, etc. which means textifying it and using
- save-a-tree would be really bad.
-
- (Actually, I guess this is a message for Steve: don't try save-a-tree:
- Joel probably didn't realize you were talking about a highly-formatted
- Word file.)
