I used to do layout and design for children’s books. I cannot tell you the number of times I requested an image to be edited, or a higher resolution version, only to be sent a word doc with the image inside the document.

I asked someone to send me an image once (I think their logo) and they wanted to know if I prefer word or excel format?

When you email a graphic artist and ask them if they can send the file with layers and they send you an xls document with extra workbook tabs you know you are in for a fun day.

I've gotten a screenshot in a word doc that was printed and then scanned to email. I couldn't see a gd thing.
