Most Helpful: File Name
The most helpful thing you can do to support the work of The Lady’s secretary, is name your Word or PDF document in the following way. When I receive your letters for The Lady I change the file name to match this format for my file system. Changing each file name of each letter takes time, so if you already title your documents in this way it will help me a lot. Here is the format I would like to ask you use:
File Name Format:
First Name + Last Initial + Date of Letter (written as TwoDigitYear–Month–Day)
For example:
John V 17-8-6
John V 18-6-12
John V 18-7-17
Some pointers:
- Please do not use leading zeros before the month or day. For example, do not use “05” for May or “09” for September. Just use “5” or “9.”
- Do not use periods in the file name except at the end of the name before the file extension (.doc, .docx, .pdf, etc). For example:
No: John V. 17-8-6.docx
Yes: John V 17-8-6.docx
