Displays and command keys in text

• On iSeries, give references to displays in lower case and quotes, to be consistent with the display title on the panel.
• References to command keys should be in upper case and bold type, for example, HELP, ROLLUP, ENTER, F3.
• In text, spell out numbers under ten; for instance, nine turtle doves not 9 turtledoves; 13 characters not thirteen characters.

Note that special conventions apply to the following diagram types:

• Command diagrams
• Chapter facing pages
• CA 2E relation syntax diagrams
• CA 2E relation examples

Headings should not have a period as punctuation.
