Description
This typeface is used for names of, for instance, windows, buttons,
and labels when these names appear on the screen (example: the
Alarms Browser window). When it is clear that we are referring to, for
instance, a button, the name is used alone (example: Click OK).
This typeface is used for words to be typed in exactly as they are
shown in the text (example: In the Address field, type http://
ucs01.ucs:9080/).
This typeface is used for messages, prompts, and other text displayed
on the computer screen (example: A new trap destination has
been added).
This typeface is used with angle brackets as placeholders for a specif-
ic member of the group that the words represent (example: <router
number>).
NOTE: In sequences to be typed in, the angle brackets
are omitted to avoid confusion whether to include the angle
brackets in the text to be typed.
This typeface is used for keyboard keys (example: Press Y, and then
press ENTER).
This typeface is used for citations. A citation usually is the name of a
document or a phrase from another document (example: Dimetra IP
System Overview).
An → (arrow pointing right) is used for indicating the menu or tab
structure in instructions on how to select a certain menu item (exam-
ple: File→Save) or a certain sub-tab.
