Standard Formatting

Occasionally a client will provide a template or give specific formatting instructions for GCs.  When none of this is provided, use the following guidelines to properly format a GC:


Block Style

Do not indent.  Speaker labels should be at the left margin.

No hanging indent

Text should wrap to the left margin.

Use a tab after the colon instead of two spaces

After the speaker name, use a colon and hit tab once. Even if it doesn't look like enough space, never use more than one tab.

See the example below and pay attention to the formatting marks:
