This is a question Irrational Hatred

People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

Grammer and spelling Nazies
I hate you. I draw up a lovely design for your brosher and I have to add in a lot of text to make sure allthe font styles and layout look greeat.

I tehn make a PDF to show it about, and sure enuff I'll have addeda typ[ or two in the copy. (I don't always use Lorem Ipsum as its faster to type utter bollox. I got moaned at for not using english anyway.)

In the meetings, half of the fuckers can't get over the error in the text (which is going to be totoaly changed anyway). Just look at the colours and layout.

I can't do a fucking thing if you need to see your shite text in the design before you've submitted it.

My mayet who is also dislexic doesn't have proplem readin whats on the page to get the meaning, then moving on. Why can't you? Text conveys the idea, fuck all else more. I like spelling ov with a V.

You cannot proof read copy that doesn't exist yet.
And there is no point proof reading text that will be changed and isn't for the purpose of being read. It's just a place holder. It gives a rough word count maybe. nothing more.

Agreed
However, presentations that are 100% text (such as your post above) should be proofread and corrected, so it doesn't take twice as long to figure out exactly what the hell you are trying to say...
