Another couple of websites that readers might find useful.
Nothing will ever persuade me to part with my Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, but two hardback volumes spanning nigh on 4,000 pages aren’t that easy to lug around when I’m travelling to client sites. Meanwhile, BJ writes (and occasionally speak) an often-entirely-different language. The two online dictionaries I resort to are therefore the Ask Oxford site for “English English” and Merriam-Webster online for US work. Other recommendations welcomed!

And here’s a money-saving idea. Many proposal teams submit their documents in PDF format – yet the relevant software products can prove expensive. However, although PDF is a proprietary format, Adobe do make it available to other vendors. CutePDF offer a free download that will let you create simple PDF files; they make their money from a “professional” version to which you can upgrade if you need more bells and whistles.
