Hi Everyone I've got feedback on Chapter 7. Here it goes:
p6 - In the caution I would say "reformatted" instead of "reformatting". P8 & P39 - the lines of the Note are a different thickness P19 - There's a reference to OOo 3.1 P22 & 42 - I always thought it was bad practice to have a Note & Caution or a Note & Tip directly following each other. Please advise. P23 - Colours in text are always a bit of a no-no due to 1 in 3 men being colour blind and I think 1 in 5 women are colour blind. I don't see the necessity of the word "colored" to be in green. Black will do as anyone who is red/green colour blind will only see grey, so same applies to the red text on the same page. Consider the use of character styles instead of colour. Also, if you choose blue, beware of the shade of blue you use too because some people are likely to be colour blind when it comes to different tones of blue. A good example is the director Eli Roth who is red/brown and blue/black color blind in low light. I'm saying this because where I sit I don't get much light in my room and we shouldn't think that everyone using OOo is sitting in a well lit office. If you want to use colour do some research into the colours to use that are less likely to cause the reader problems. P27 - Table split over 2 pages P33 - I'd underline the word "not" in the first line of the page or make it bold, not a colour, that is likely to cause a reader problems (explained above). Other than that, I thought the chapter was fine. Hope the feedback helps.
