Thinking about pamphlets:
Trying to fit 18-letter-words into 3-kanji-boxes is a real toughie!~

What made it worse is that I worked with them up until the very end of it - if it didn`t fit, we worked on making it fit, and we`d gotten everything nice and lined up, etc.
And then someone comes along and decides that about 1/4th the words were unnecessary. Who needs "the" or "this" or "in" or "at"? I`m seriously embarrassed to have my name on it now.
ETA: I just looked at the thing again, and it seems like they took the extra "the"s and "a"s and just stuck them in other bits where there was leftover space.
