PDF files have errors

The Creative Pro page took forever to load on a T1 internet connect and the PDF files both had errors and would not load. I would really like to read these articles.

PDF Download

Dear Bestes:
I just downloaded the files. Both came through quickly and with no errors. Try again. If you still can't get them to work please contact me off line (scott at scottcitrondesign dot com) and I'll send them personally. Thanks.

Bad Info

Dear Mr. Citron,

Your demo advises using a 0.25-point rule. In my experience, this has proven to be a bad idea, if the target output device is an offset press, or anything less high-resolution. I never use a rule width less than 0.4 points in order to keep them from dropping out.

Your explanation of typographical point size is a little confusing. I have always thought of it as: 72-point type is designed to fit on 72 points of leading (vertical spacing), or, as we said in the old days--if it is set "solid"--without parts of the letters crashing into each other.

Otherwise, good advice and examples.
