[edit] Blockquote around document layout

There are <blockquote></blockquote> tags around the sample document. I honestly have no idea if it's necessary to have these tags or not. The general layout of the document is not unique to the source, and I made up the numbers and names. I'm not sure if a generic business document layout is a quote or not. Anyone know? -- • • • Blue Pixel 23:34, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi Blue Pixel -- I would agree that a generic document is not a quote. The reason I originally added the blockquote tags was simply to indent the sample document on both sides, not to signify that it was an actual quote. I thought it made the page look cleaner (compare with your Oct 25th edit). Cheers, -FashionNugget (talk) 16:57, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

It looks better this way, for sure! I tried using html div tags, centered, 75% width, but that didn't seem to take here in Wiki. The only problem I have with quote tags is that neither of us thinks this is a direct quote, so it's a bit misleading to use the tags. Is there a table layout expert here in Wiki who can make this pretty for us? -- • • • Blue Pixel 02:28, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Online commercial invoice sample forms

Editor 69.70.47.158, who developed Marketrans Transportation Services Inc., added http://www.marketrans.com/pdf/Commercial_Invoice.pdf as a reference in this article for the sample commercial invoice, without making any changes to the layout here or adding any additional text to the article. The pdf is a nice clear form, but the reason for adding this reference appears to be for advertising purposes. I'm placing the link here for discussion. -- • • • Blue Pixel 22:26, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
