Abstract

This chapter gives general principles and guidelines for the display of data. Presentation design for most interfaces involves screen design although other media, such as voice, will play an increasingly important role in the future. This section concentrates on the general approach for VDU screen design; detailed guidelines for different types of screen and use of graphics are given in later chapters.
