Same here, maybe Tesla as a homogeneous word deployment?

I’m sure between various version there is difference in what is produced.

Unless you can ask word for the equivalent of a postscript ?

From what I've heard of their engineering practices, it would be shocking if any deployment they have is homogeneous

I believe the printer logs would contain the size of a Postscript-like equivalent, not the docx itself. I wonder if the story is missing the detail of submitting the new Word file to a printer and checking the size. Or he fired someone random where Word doc size == printer input size.
