Numbered versus unnumbered heads in very technical reference guides
Subject:Numbered versus unnumbered heads in very technical reference guides From:Matt Gras <mattgras -at- comcast -dot- net> To:tech2wr-l <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Mon, 17 Jun 2013 20:38:17 +0000 (UTC)
I'm seeking to present arguments for and against using numbered heads in reference guides (and related documentation). The material is very dense and very technical, and the audience includes both experienced and inexperienced users.
Your thoughts are very much appreciated.
Regards,
Matt
