Conventions for this manual
8-1
Typographical
•
In text describing the user interface,
italic
and
bold
characters are used to differentiate between body
text and on-screen or hardware captions and labels, entered text, etc.:
-
Italics are used for references to hardware items and text which appears on-screen (e.g., menu
titles, button labels, on-screen messages, etc.).
-
Bold face is used when specific instructions are given for the entry of text or selection of a menu
option, etc. If the operation or text entry includes the use of a keyboard or mouse button, its name
is shown between angle brackets, to distinguish it from entered text, e.g.,
123<Enter>
would be
written for an instruction to type
123
followed by the
Enter
or
Return
key.
•
In other text:
-
Italics are used when a specific concept is introduced.
-
Italic and bold characters may also be used for local emphasis.
-
Blue italics are used for cross references.
