TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Correct...do you think knowing the impact of topic length and that the
correct way to handle the long topic with no heading is to place MORE
is something that you want software to know because the writer
doesn't?
Are you sure that the best way isn't to place a sub-heading first, so
there are no exceptions?
BTW...what's a 1280 by 1024 display?
What's happening is that you don't realize that the things you are
taking for granted AREN'T known universally.
Shoot...I have first hand knowledge that some writers don't know that
steps get numbers and that lists get bullets.
