Web Style Guide

The Style Guide for Publishing (DRAFT) (PDF, 934 KB) is still in DRAFT format. Current approved styles are listed below. The Style Guide also provides additional helpful hints for using Dreamweaver.

The spellings of many new web and technology-related terms have not yet become standard in the English language. Until an accepted standard is established, we endorse the use of the uniform spellings on our website and in other publications and communications.

Over the next year, we will be updating our site and publications to reflect the above spellings. See the current listing below.
