  1. On editing/rewriting...

    #1
    One thing I've found is that to get a good tight layout, text needs to be edited quite often. How does everyone else feel about that? It's never been a real issue for me because I've only ever been laying out my own text, so editing/revising has not really been an issue. I can see a few options:


    The text as written takes precedence over the layout
    The layoutist requests for certain revisions from the author in regards to word count
    The layoutist performs necessary edits/revisions and submits them to the author for approval

    I'm indifferent between option 2 and 3. I myself is not too fussed about the layout but having a single word on the last sentence is sort of annoying.
