Well, according to the British journalist, Stephen Masty, we are still witnessing new inventions in musical instruments that link us back to the Renaissance figuratively and literally. His article “The 21st Century Renaissance Inventor” [of musical instruments], in the journal “The Imaginative Conservative” received worldwide attention recently regard- ing George Kelischek’s invention of the “KELHORN”. a reinvention of Renaissance capped double-reed instruments, such as Cornamuse, Crumhorn, Rauschpfeiff.

GOING IN STYLE (#3): ON TYPOGRAPHY, PART 2 Typography is “the visual component of the written word.” (Matthew Butterick, Typography for Lawyers: Essential Tools for Polished & Persuasive Documents (2nd ed. 2015) p. 20.) As discussed in the previous issue of this series, typography is a subtle but significant aspect of every brief we file, with the capacity to improve persuasiveness by making reading easier and demonstrating professionalism through attention to detail. While there are few hard rules in brief typography, there are many areas that call for practitioners’ consideration and consistency. The previous issue addressed two aspects of typography — type composition and text formatting. Here we will take up a third — page layout. PAGE LAYOUT Page layout is the way text looks on the page, including the amount of white space. The California Rules of Court impose a single page layout requirement: rule 8.204(b)(6)1 requires margins of 1.5" on left and right sides, 1" top and bottom. Other than that, brief writers have decisions to make. ● Line spacing Line spacing, the vertical distance between lines of text, must be a minimum 1.5 lines. (Rule 8.204(b)(5).) Although experts generally say something slightly less than 1.5-spaced lines is best for reading, it depends on how long the lines are. (See Ruth Anne Robbins, Painting with print: Incorporating concepts of typographic and layout design into the text of legal writing documents (2004) 2 J. Assoc. of Legal Writing Directors 108, 123–124.) In an appellate brief with 1.5" margins on an 8.5 x 11" page,1.5-spaced lines, which is what the 1 Citations to rules refer to the California Rules of Court. -

The politics of relationality. Designs for the pluriverse ………. 57 6. Some provisional concluding remarks ………………………………….. 74 7. References ………………………………………………………………….. 78 Note to readers: This ‘paper’ ended up being actually the draft of a short book; the book is likely to have one more chapter, dealing with globalization, development, and environment issues; it is also likely to have examples, and to be written in a less academic manner, or so I hope. I’ve had several tentative titles over the past few years, the most recent one being The Ecological Crisis and the Question of Civilizational Transitions: Designs for the Pluriverse. I’ve been reading, and working with, most of this material for a long time, but some of it is new (to me); this is particularly true for Part I on design. I suspect the text is quite uneven as a result. Part IV is largely cut-and-paste from several texts in English and Spanish, particularly the long preface to the 2nd ed. of Encountering Development. This part will need additional re/writing besides editing and reorganizing. The references are somewhat incomplete; there are a few key design references of which I have been made aware very recently that are not, or not significantly, included (e.g., on participatory design, postcolonial computing, and human-computer interaction). -

Redaction of Confidential Information in Electronic Documents
Technical Redaction of Confidential Note Information in Electronic Documents How to safely remove sensitive information from Microsoft Word documents and PDF Documents Using Adobe Acrobat CONTENTS Redaction, which means removing information from documents, is necessary when confidential information must be removed from a Typical Causes of Redaction Problems 1 document before final publication. Problems can arise when editors use Application Tools for Removing Data 2 an improper method such as trying to obscure information rather than deleting it, or if they are unaware of sensitive metadata in a document. Redacting a Word Document 3 They can find out, too late, that the information can later be extracted Setting PDF conversion parameters 9 from the document. Redacting a PDF Document 11 Documents are typically authored in an application such as Microsoft® Word® or PowerPoint®, and converted to PDF for final distribution. As with References 13 many publishing operations, redaction is best accomplished in the authoring application. Using Microsoft Word as an example, this document explains how to set preferences for safe conversion to PDF. The general principles can be applied for use with other word processing or page layout applications. When only a PDF version of a document is available, it is necessary to redact using Acrobat. The section “Redacting a PDF Document” on page 11 describes a procedure for that purpose. Again, every effort should be made to redact in the authoring application before converting to PDF. NOTE: This document addresses redaction for documents that will be distributed as PDF files. Publishing documents in, for example, Microsoft Word or PowerPoint format can involve issues that are beyond the scope of this document.
