Fall Semester PFs: Buff&Shine-02

This post includes three more tips for buffing and shining your final portfolios for fall semester. These three are in increasing order of importance.
  • Avoid use of special characters such as roman numerals from Japanese fonts.
    • Example:
      • Accurate: Writing IVc: Portfolio
      • Inaccurate: Writing Ⅳc: Portfolio
        • As you can see, special characters may not display as you wish in different contexts, on various operating systems.
  • Don't worry about tables bleeding under the edge of your sidebar.
If you could see the right-most columns of tables in your portfolios as you were editing them, and you have published your portfolios, instead of saving them as drafts; it is often possible to read the content that you have provided by viewing the source code (html).
  • Label your portfolio!
Make absolutely certain that your final portfolio for fall semester bears the label "portfolios" (plural). If it doesn't, because you've ignored this and previous advice about labels, and I exclude your portfolio from your final grade; you may not pass.
