IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL REEL DEALS
ADVERTISERS
NO Hand Written Advertisements
From this edition of RD, hand written advertisements will NOT BE ACCEPTED.
Since the first edition of Reel Deals, over 12 years ago, I have reluctantly accepted hand
written advertisements – sometimes, I have gone to the trouble of retyping then to make
them presentable and legible (occasionally, this has got me into trouble, when I have mis-
read the original and had some of the information wrong). Sometimes they have simply
been submitted as received (enlarged or reduced to fit the page) to the printer.
In any case, hand written material is the cause of much frustration and unnecessary phone
calls, when readers can’t read the phone number or other important information.
So, from the March 2006 edition –
Hand written ads will not be accepted for publication in RD.
My preference for submission of advertising material in order is ….
1. As a ‘WORD’ document attached to an email.
2. Included in the body text of an email.
3. As a clearly printed (not dot matrix) sheet the same size as this page.
4. As a clearly printed A4 sheet (which will be reduced in size to fit).
For best reproduction of photos, they should be sent by email or on disc. The photo can
then be resized without loss of definition, the original print (from my printer) is then
submitted to the printer
