I have some advices for you here.
Basic
DON't use too long titles!!!
Node names
You better pick a name for a node that makes sense. For example you could
choose the name introduction for a node that describes your program
instead of NodeA for example.
Styles
You better use bold when you want to make something too noticable. Italics
are good in giving emphasis to text while underline(which i rarely use)
is good to point a certain phrase.
Fonts
You can use any font you wish. The problem is that the user may not have
that font. You should pick fonts that you are sure that someone else has
like the Topaz font or you can include the fonts in your archive.
Multimedia
Having some pictures or even animations acompanying your document is great.
The problem is that if you use animations you should state that it is an
animation since the user might have an external pic-only viewer. You
could for example have your logo spinning or something assigned to a
phrase or snapshots of your program. It is great! Also you could have
some sampled voices or even some cool sound FXs from you game(if the program
is a game). You might want to include some AREXX examples and the user
could be able to view/execute them just by clicking on a phrase, or even
assigna program that demonstrates your program to a phrase!!! There is
no limit besides your imagination!
Misc
Try not to make the document that fancy. A great document is one that
achieves its goal:to give away information. Using complex font styles
and cool logos(Bart Simpson!!) might be neat but the 'serious' users might
dislike that.
^^ Beware of the snakes!!
