This all sounds good to me.
I suggest have some guidance in the "Formatting Pages" chapter on *when* to use what type of formatting. <snip>
... I think for most users, who are typing text rather than scanning it in like Chris, character spacing is not a primary concern. ...That step is usually done after the basic layout is complete; so a cross-reference to the character spacing section might be appropriate in the layout chapter. .....
The "Numbering pages" topic should address FAQs like "How do I suppress numbering on the first page?" and "How do I change the numbering style and sequence for front matter?"
I'm relieved to note that I already had in my notes for these chapters all the things you mention above. :-)
I notice you have "Using frames for page layout" listed twice. Is one of them supposed to be something else?
No, I just pasted that line twice without realising it. :-)
Anyone else have comments or additions to the outlines I posted?
Cheers, Jean
