Style Sheet - draft / ideas


In todays session we are producing a draft style sheet which will allow us to gain a better view of what the completed newspaper will look like once all the articles are put together within the style sheet itself, or-though I am not personally producing an article, I still believe that it will help the other members within my group who are producing articles for our Media Me newspaper


A style sheet is a form of presenting the content within the publishing process, for example applying and formating text within the style sheet 


Shown below is some general points that I must keep in mind when producing the stye sheet draft: 

Typeface / font style 
Bold / italics (Bold facing) 
Underlining of text / titles etc 
Justification (left, right, center, etc) 
Space before and after paragraphs 
Tab stops and indentation  
Colour  of text 
Borders 
Letters (capitals and non capitals etc) 
Strike through style 

Shown below is a screen shot from the editing process of  my style sheet

 
I started working on my style sheet but due to time constraints I was unable to complete it, so I decided that since I am a member of the quality control team that it would be a good idea to concentrate on other tasks such as plans for the deadlines and letters for the group leaders

Also I was informed by my teacher that it was not my job to create a style sheet so this is another reason why I unfortunately did not complete my style guide document
