Alpha-Num A
This begins a new alphabetic list. Use this format when a numbered list of steps in
a procedure needs a sublist of steps. It should be used rarely; often, a re-analysis of
the problem will reveal a method of presenting the information which is less
convoluted. Should you decide to use this, be prepared to explain your decision: it
will be questioned.
Alpha-Num A+
This continues an alphabetic list, picking the next consecutive letter after the last
use.
Appendix Number
This provides an appendix number and the rules which are used at the beginning
of each appendix in a book, in each book of the set. Its use provides a consistent
“look” to the Aptis documentation set.
Bullet List
This format indicates the paragraph is part of a bulleted list, the left margin of
which is 0.5 inches from the left margin of the text frame; the bullets themselves
are indent 0.25 inches from the left margin of the text frame.. For example, the
following paragraphs are in bullet list format.
•
The first item
•
The second item
Use this format when the left margin of your text is the left margin of the text
frame and you want to indicate a number of items, all of which have the same
significance, or when you want to indicate the steps of a “super-procedure,” such as
Running a Billing. The items in the bullet list will then end with cross-references
to the explanation of the procedures which comprise the “super-procedure.”
Bullet List Indented
This format indicates that the paragraph is part of a bulleted list, the left margin
at 0.75 inches from the left margin of the text frame. For example, the following
paragraphs are in bullet list indented format:
Use this format when:
Caution
•
You wish to make several points relating to the same issue;
•
You need to indicate several alternatives, or
•
You want to list components of a particular process.
This format creates bold, italic text in the sidehead area with the word “Caution”,
followed by a Tab, followed by the text that you have typed. Cf. Note on page 35,
Note Indented on page 35, Warning on page 37.
Use this format to indicate to users conditions which could result in data loss, as in
the following:
