Over the course of this semester, I feel as though I have grown as an editor. I
have used a variety of different platforms and tools to edit and manipulate
documents that I had previously had no experience with. One of which was
Weebly, a website development tool, which I used to produce my final
portfolio.
The editing process consisted of individual revisions and partner revisions. All
of the documents that I was given to edit were digital files so I decided to do
all of my editings on the computer using Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Word.
One of the programs I used to do editing was Adobe Acrobat. I used
comments, highlights, and strikethrough to mark up the documents. I also
used Microsoft Word for the first project, utilizing the track changes and
comments features. I found that I enjoy editing document more in Adobe
Acrobat because my suggestions can be made in a clean and simple way.
Although, I think that using track changes and comments in Microsoft Word
would be more convenient for the author of the document because, they
wouldnt have to switch back and forth between two programs; all the
suggested changes could be viewed, approved, and discarded within Word.
Though, I still believe that all final documents should be submitted in PDF
format because of its static final format. The technical goals of the edits were
to improve the consistency and clarity of the document so that it would be
easily understood by the audience as well as conflicting design and layout
practices.
wrestled with this issue for hours until I gave up and decided to just submit
an online portfolio instead of a physical one. I still have not found a solution
to this issue though various forums suggest that it is an issue within the
Adobe Acrobat Reader program that is still yet to be addressed by Adobe.
the document, I noted that were not working in the document were the
figures. In the paragraphs, there were references to images that werent
even there. The spaces for those figures to go was there as well as a black
box but the actual figures themselves were not there. Also, there was some
inconsistency when referencing the Get It function throughout. The final
thing I noticed was that I had some difficulty reading thought the large chart
towards the end of the document. Possibly a different color scheme would
help and that all the lines dividing cells were present.
Project C: This project was a document was a compilation of data that was
collected by a team of community engagement experts at UNC Charlotte. It
consisted of the various goals and accomplishment established and met by
the university. When reviewing the document, one of the consistent issues I
noticed was with the page numbers, the page numbers are not sequential
and on some pages, they overlap. I also notice that there was a lot of
variation between text alignment between left and justified. Text color was
one of the more major issues, the dramatic colors make the text hard to read
and put a lot of strain on peoples eyes, I think it would be best just to leave
all of the text black. The chart on page 7 I would recommend having the
circles be changed to rectangles and to have contrasting colors between the
text and background. My final major concern is the blue box that is on the
last page, Im not really sure of what its purpose is or why its there.
Project D: This project was a usability testing report of the UNC Charlotte
Help Pages. The authors conducted a usability test on the Help page of the
