American Heart Association Take Home Quiz


Are the line lengths of text appropriate?

Yes, the line lengths are appropriate. I feel there could be more information per page but that would make it cluttered. All the pages have the information layed out in about ½ of the page. The menu on the left takes up about ¼ of the page and then there is advertising, or general information on the far right that takes up about ¼ of the page.

This form of page layout makes the lines of text short or about the same length as a book. The text is very easy to read and I don't get lost in it. With the text being shorter it makes paragraphs look fatter making page layout look neater. (Not like the pages that I have created here for this assignment.) If the paragraphs had a lot of lines and had the width of the page for each line you could get lost in the text.
