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.
With the advent of more and more on-line/electronic documentation
(HTML, PDF), I am interested in learning more
about text legibility rules for on-screen documentation (text
font, size, colour, etc.).
Is anyone aware of rules, research, or suggestions that
make on-screen documentation easier to read and to understand.
Thanks all,
Diane
