Note vs. Footnote
This is another request for opinions. Our writing group is in the throes of developing documentation guidelines to be used by an entire department ( developers and tech writers alike). This question arose today.
When is it appropriate to insert a Note into manual text? When is a footnote appropriate? Research reveals no comparison of the two. We'd like to clarify their use.
Please reply off-list ( I am a digest subscriber). TIA
I'll summarize the responses for the list early next week.
