aa> Is anyone aware of any standards (ISO or otherwise) regarding
aa> warning terminology?

the only general solution I am aware of is ANSI Z535.

If you are to write warnings about dangerous chemicals you are to observe an
official document called "Gefahrstoffverordnung". It contains *complete*
instructions about designing warning labels.


Greetings from Germany,
