    The real WTF is using any software made by Adoh-be.

  • Meh (unregistered) in reply to Hognoxious

    Yeah, because there's an abundance of competent alternatives out there that come close to matching the ubiquitousness of Adobe products.

    Don't forget that Adobe bought ColdFusion!

    80 odd metres wide... thats some big ass photo album.

    Maybe it was made for these guys

    Hm, the second one just seems like it's giving you a bit of troubleshooting help as opposed to looking for yes/no. :/

  • (cs)

    I hope adobe will not be known as the next Microsoft.

    But I mean its not all that bad. The intention of the message was: "Cannot print. Please make sure printer is turned on."

    Its windows that should be troubleshooting if the printer driver is working correctly.

    I just wish adobe made software for 64-bit linux.

    I don't see the WTF in differentiating between "Large Album" and "Large Landscape Album". The latter would indicate an album that would be well-suited for, say, six landscape oriented pix per album page.

    The WTF is that the Large Landscape Album is apparently over 280 feet wide.

    I calculated that each of those 40 pages is a generous 22.02 square metres; 0.0054 acres; 0.2202 ares; 237.05 square feet or 26.34 square yards. Is that correct? That's very good for size (can I get that delivered through the mail by the way?) but at just 10" wide I was just wondering if the page orientation format might be better described as "panorama deluxe"?

    Sounds correct. Which means that all 40 pages total between 1/5 and 1/4 of an acre.

    Actually what is spooky is I got a ebay ad for a 2008 ENCLOSED BOX UTILITY CARGO LANDSCAPE DUMP TRAILER

    Which is what you would need to deliver one of those books.

    No, the real WTF is the fact that you posted about this being a WTF, when in fact it's an Error'd post. So it's not a WTF at all.

    Learn to read, and maybe you won't be "the real WTF" again.

    There is even the United States Patent 20020162257 which this album is based on. Now, that's a WTF to patent an album.

    The lawn mower is great. I have one myself but I've lost the blades...
