  • I have a friend who is graphic designer for a small shop. Customers drop off work at the front desk, and depending on how much effort it works out to be, it can land on his desk.

    Some customers insist on explaining to “the designer directly”. They get told/warned that it’s more expensive (hourly) and that the clock starts as soon as he walks up to the counter. And some customers agree to these terms.

    It’s always entertaining to hear his stories.







  • It really comes down to apps.

    The only flag you mentioned that caught my attention was Word and Word templates. I’ve not tried Word templates.

    I figure your options are either Libre Office or something cloud based, eg, Google Docs.

    One thing you could try is to set up a VM or boot a live CD (USB) and try on the things that most concern you.
