It has taken a long time, but I have uploaded the updated HTML coding and style
guidelines.
Created attachment 3351 [details]
HTMLguide.zip
The attahment HTMLguide.zip is updated from the last revised documentation, and
added following:
For guidelines of preformatted text (<pre>), following is added:
However, even with reduced font size, there are chances that preformatted text
to be wider than typical browser window. The affected code lines should be
broken up whenever possible. Even by following above guides, do not expect
readers to see every preformatted line to fit into a 'typical' browser window.
In section Creating a new document -> Name the new document in 8+3 format, the
file name length limit is slightly relaxed, because DOS, the only platform
Ghostscript has ever supported that benefits from such restriction, has not
been supported by Ghostscript for several major revisions. The section title
is renamed to reflect the change. In addition, the instruction is more
explicit. File name convention now also restricted characters to ASCII,
complete with rationale, to address issues of non-ASCII file names.
Re-assigning bugs which still have work to do. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 689093 *** |
