David Avrom Bell @davidavrombell.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Friendly note to academic job applicants: Be careful when converting Word files to pdfs. I have seen several cases this year where pdfs inadvertently included "Comments" that advisors, colleagues and friends made on draft materials. 110
David Avrom Bell @davidavrombell.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I didn't read these comments, and I suspect in most cases it wouldn't be a big deal if I had done so. Still, better to delete the comments before converting to pdf. 000
