anyone ever seen a time like this?

[gabagoo]

I have a file that was approved and I printed it.
I now see the times like this

9.30am - 4.30pm - note one dot?


I have never seen a time posted like that and wonder...is this acceptable?

I have never seen it with a period instead of a colon.

Sharpie.

Like wraps said sharpie (if you can get away with it) or cut new ones or just let it slide. Anyone who won't understand what those numbers mean without the extra dot..... is just stupid.

I know what you mean but they specifically asked for it that way via an e-mail with quotations around the times.
They approved the copy but you wonder if they missed it.
Not my problem and a sharpie wont work as it is a lime green digitally printed.

maybe it goes with the new way to do phone #s/ 123.456.7891

If the file was supplied to you like that.... I'd let it alone. I'm seeing more and more people do this kinda crap. Just because more are doing it, doesn't mean it's accepted. Just some mental midget's way of trying to be different.

If you created it and it was accepted as wrong as an oversight... I think you should point out your own mistake and offer to make it right, before someone on their end has this same conversation.... thus making you look bad.

We have done it quite a bit, like Pat said, if someone can't figure it out...

Done like that all the time over here.

I knew a person that used a period for times and phone numbers as his "style". Most customers didn't even question it.

Put a dollar sign in front of it and really make them wonder!

$9.30am - $4.30pm

Never seen it with a period, but if they requested it, it's theirs.

one thing is for sure... Times aint like they used to be.

Obviously a case of colon trouble.

I've seen it done for phone numbers a lot. This is actually the first time I've seen it done for time though.

Need more fiber?
