Re: Formatting Docs On-The-Fly

[Tony Markos <ajmarkos -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

Char:

If for example, the standard formatting calls for
right-size numbered steps (written in the active
voice), if I have "holes" in my understanding of the
subject matter, I can try and hide such by switching
to unnumbered (read: often non sequential), large
paragraphs written in puffed up, vague,
non-active-voice language.  

Rationale:  If they can't establish the flow of it
and/or get specific with it, then maybe they will not
be able t see the holes in it.  Happened all the time
at the DOD agency which I contracted at.  (Often times
such text was prefixed with a statement like "The
procedure to do X is simple.")
