Subject:Online Help question From:Deborah Cooper <dcooper -at- INSTEPMOBILE -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 29 Oct 1998 09:07:39 -0800
I'm developing an online help system taken as a direct (or almost
direct) copy of our hardcopy documentation. My question: is it
customary to include captions for online documentation as you do
in hardcopy for tables and graphics? Thanks!
