Re: e-mail format(t)ing and the 7 work energy relationships



Let me introduce one more consideration into the issues surrounding email
transfer of graphics.

I did receive the RTF file of work-energy relationships fine and saved it
fairly easily to my NeXT. Both of my workprocessors (they both handle RTF
fine) did not show the table in graphic form. When I ftp'ed the file to my
Win95 machine and opened it in MSWord, it was fine.

The problem is that it was a MAC graphic and was not translated by my
Unix-based NeXT. Most people will probably not have this problem, I know.
But GIF and JPG are cross-platform graphic standards that can be
interpreted by almost anyone, so maybe we could make sure we use one of
those forms.
