All terms are consistent, appropriate and covered by the glossary. Abbreviations are avoided where possible.
Illustrations Are of appropriate size and quality for selected media.
All annotations are sensibly placed and refer to terminology used throughout the rest of the document. Language mechanics Grammar, spelling, capitalisation, punctuation and sentence structure are correct and consistent. Sentences are short, clear and concise. Instructional information is in the active voice. Language style Predefined house style is followed.
