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.
Hi, I am having a debate with several people in my office about an HPart
Title that we put in all of our manuals, and the way it is presented. In the
past, a Tech Writer we had put it the current way, and I am questioning his
judgement in doing so as I find it to look a bit unprofessional and
everytime I see it I want to change it. Anyway, here are the two versions of
this title, I'd be interested to see how people feel about it.
The current version = 'the Service'
The way I think it should be = 'The Service'
It is the HPart title at the head of all our main Sections(where there is
only one chapter to the manual) and I was told this is done with a small 't'
because it makes the 'S' in Service and the 'S' logo for the section appear
larger (?)
