This pamphlet is directed at those entering the field of desktop publishing. 
About half of the eighteen points are devoted to "unlearning" the bad habits
necessitated by a monospaced, limited character set typewriter.  These give
some practical tips on accessing special characters in widely sold PC software. 
(By the way, Robin, some "fractional" characters are available.)
 
The remaining material deals more generally with style, and your ability to use
it may depend upon either your artistic or technical competence.
