Bill Gates, evil genius
So I’m well acquainted with the notion that I have to strip out formatting from Word documents when I’m pasting them elsewhere. I have all the autoformatting turned off – something I learned to do the first time I was pasting special event messaging into Dragonrealms and none of the quotation marks showed up. Embarassing!
But I thought I had everything set correctly when I posted up this week’s Dunder Mifflin Infinity task, a review of Schrute Farms. But no, there’s plenty of freaky formatting to go around, and you can’t edit your entries once they’r submitted. I put a fair amount of effort into this – purchasing beets, photographing them, and Photoshopping them into my daughter’s easter egg carton. I even carved a freakin’ beet into a jack o’lantern. My fingers are still stained red. And it’s all for naught!
Darn you, Microsoft! Darn you all to heck!
ETA: Actually, I see another Mac user whose review looks like it’s all in ASCII. So maybe it’s not Word, maybe it’s Mac and Dunder Mifflin Infinity. Get with the times, DMI!
