What Authors Should Know"},"content":{"rendered":"

When an author sends a manuscript to a publisher by email, seeing a different file size after attaching the document can be alarming. If the original book file is 1,000 bytes but the email attachment appears to be 750 bytes, it is natural to wonder whether some of the manuscript has been removed.<\/p>\n

The good news is that a smaller displayed file size does not necessarily mean that any part of the book has been deleted<\/strong>. File sizes can change because of compression, file-format processing, differences in how storage is measured, or even because the email application is displaying information differently from the computer’s file system.<\/p>\n
