tip of the week (7/26/2009)

July 26 – August 1, 2009 this week’s "tip of the week" was sent from James, from Byron Center, MI

James writes: "If you have a document that you repeatedly make copies of, make it easy with a designated original. On your original (or a very clean copy) write 'Original' in yellow highlighter. It has to be yellow since other highlighter colors will show on photocopies, but yellow doesn't.

Keep this in a convenient folder OR in a sheet protector in a handy binder. If you have a lot of these kind of documents, dedicate a small binder to 'originals'. You can run copies while it's still in the sheet protector, and never get the original lost or mixed in with copies again.”
