When writing technical documentation, especially online documentation, strict organization assumes a particularly important role. The reader is often there only to find some specific piece of information, and typically scans rather than peruses the text. To make this easier,
- subdivide your document and outline it with headings
- organize a strong structure
- use bulleted lists
- write concisely; don't ramble
- get to the point first, then elaborate
- don't write long introductions except in "Introduction" sections
- give a clear explanation
- and use specific examples to illustrate the text. (An example is worth a thousand words.)
You want the main points of your writing to stick out so that the reader can find the right section quickly and easily. Snag them first, then explain.

As cross-cultural written communication increases, the technology underlying that communication needs to handle the intersection of their layout conventions. Vertical text is the traditional mode of text layout for many East Asian writing systems. It is also used for effects such as vertical headers in horizontal layout. However, few formatting systems today can do true vertical text layout, and most of those can only handle common scripts in right-to-left columns. Methods for typesetting left-to-right columns or uncommon script combinations such as Mongolian and Arabic thus often involve unwieldy BIDI overrides and delicate glyph rendering tweaks. These workarounds are awkward and can break the portability of the underlying text. The model outlined in this paper uses the intrinsic properties of the characters and an expansion of Unicode's logic to lay out the text without these hacks. Such a system can scale to gracefully handle any combination of scripts, can correctly lay out text with any combination of styling properties, and can integrate well with the layered Unicode + Markup + Styling design of semantically-tagged documents on the Web. This paper focuses on methods for automatically handling character ordering, shaping, and glyph orientation switches when typesetting lesser-known scripts and unusual script combinations in vertical layout, without reworking existing horizontal layout algorithms or adding script-specific new modules.
