Hi everyone. I'm relatively new to the list and this is my first post,
though I thought that bc. / bce. discussion was fascinating!
I am working on operations documents which are in piecemeal form. I need
to make the documents consistent in style. My first difficulty is that
the documents are not even consistent as far as font!
The documents are set up with a title page, table of contents (for
each), description and then instructions. What fonts and sizes would be
appropriate for each? Is there an industry standard I could use? Any
help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
