why do some things like graphics shift position in a Word doc when emailed?
I use non-printing tables and text boxes....and even tell the text boxes to
lock position, but several times people who I email them to say that the
elements have moved into funky positions. Protecting the doc soesn't seem to
do anything to prevent it either. Short of converting it to a PDF, is there
something else I can try to lock the elements into position?
