Sub-Headings – are they used to break up the text? Do they focus the readers’ attention to a particular key issue? Font Sizes: are different sizes used for effect? Upper Case letters (capital letters): are they used for key words? Bold type, italics or underlining: do these appear anywhere else in the text? If so what effect does this give? Overall layout: is the overall layout of the text eye-catching? Is the text divided up into columns? Is it divided by pictures, sub-headings or bullet points?
