• Ready for printing Key Changes:
Technical documentation converts to PDF with Courier monospace font for code readability. The monospace formatting ensures proper alignment of code examples and parameter lists. Larger margins allow for handwritten notes during review meetings. PDF format is essential for technical documentation as it preserves exact formatting when shared with development teams, QA, or included in compliance packages. The document prints correctly with consistent spacing, unlike plain text files that vary by editor settings.
