This may be a very elementary question, but it's driving me nuts, so I ask:
Is there a best-way, preferred way to send text proof copy via e-mail to
clients on the internet? I've tried a scillion ways, and get results from

margins, standand type styles and size that transmit easiest and most readable
for the client.
