Data Transmission, Software & Paper

Your original documents may be sent to us by post, courier, fax, over the internet, etc.
Completed work can be transmitted back to you by post, courier or electronically.
The delivery format can be hard-copy, floppy disk, CD-Rom/DVD-Rom or email attachment.

Unless otherwise requested, word processing documents will normally use 12 point Times New Roman Font on an A4 page with right and left margins at 0.9" (2.3 cm), top margin 0.5" (1.2 cm) and bottom margin at 0.7" (1.8 cm) .

Hard-copy documents are normally printed using inkjet or laser in either black & white or colour, as appropriate, onto quality 80g. white A4 paper.  Higher quality white (e.g. 100g.), coloured or formatted papers can be used upon request.  Your own supplied letterheads, continuations etc may equally be used.

We normally use standard Microsoft Office software but will consider direct use of specials upon request.

Electronic documents can be supplied in "pdf" format.  This format converts all text and photos etc into a graphically representation, preventing anybody receiving the document from making alterations without your approval.  The format is ideal for Curriculum Vitae sent over the Internet, and electronic copies of manuals, books etc. ("Pdf" documents can be opened and read using "Adobe Acrobat Reader" which is commonly supplied on new computers or can be downloaded for free).
