1. Create a multi-page document in illustrator.
that option is quite handy when you need to show boss/client multiple options on logos, or various options etc...
save as : pdf, then show to the client.You don't need every file made to be ready for the printer.

(and using indesign for that matter is pure waste of time IMO)

No, this sounds like a poorly trained designer. Production can't get away with this kind of BS. Designers think nothing of it, because they don't have to make their stuff work in the real world.
- what kind of shite is that? who does make it work in the real world then?skt
- the production artists, skt, that's whomonospaced
- just give it to the intern. lol.akrokdesign

I'm not a print guy, but I feel your pain. Here are some Photoshop ones that the layer name issue reminded me of.
People who never use shape layers for things like logos or things that will be scaled up.
Same thing only 10-fold for SMART OBJECTS!!!
Merging layers in PSDs for God knows what reason.
Rasterizing text or anything that doesn't need to be.

developers who take over your design work while you're on holiday, build ugly buttons and functionality, develop around it so that it makes it impossible for you to redesign the work decently, making the company site you spent ages redesigning look bad on every. friggin. page. oh and not save any of the work they did on psd then smile when they say that 'when i do design work, i tend to work and export directly without saving you see'
now, i was already on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

ATT creates multi page documents in illustrator. HP and pizza hut strictly design in quark only.

dimensions 60x468, when they really mean 468x60. I cannot stand when they switch width and height.
swiff really sets me off as do all the others.

Swif, Jiff, Ping, Sequel (for SQL)

what the hell is a "jiff" .. i get the other ones .. and heard them before but just not the jiff one ...
one that i really really can't stand if somebody calles a presentation a "preso" or a "prezz" or a "pressie" .... fucking annoying.
people still say swiff here .. also annoys me ..
aah wait i get the jiff now .. i was reading it as the J was pronounced as as i and not as "djjj" .. obviously ...
