  • Long lines of text are hard to read. Generally, a line should have 55 to 60 characters, or 9 to 10 words. Try multiple columns or, if you are stuck with a long line length, increase the leading slightly to make it easier for the eye to move from line to line.
  • White space on the page makes your document cleaner and easier to read.
  • Use indents and bullets to highlight important points. Use headings and subheadings to help your readers find the information they're interested in.
