Introduction
Headings are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced. Use initial
capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial, because it
holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot three line
skips before the heading and two line skips after. In the
“Introduction,” make sure that you orient the audience with
sufficient background to understand what the problem is and
why the problem was addressed. In this format, you formally
reference the problem memo. A good test for this section is to
imagine how well it would orient you should you read it a year
from now. Also in the “Introduction,” be sure to state what the
topic includes and any limitations about the topic.
Indent all paragraphs. Also, you may place 6 points between
paragraphs, but do not place more—that would upset the special
hierarchy of the headings and subheadings. In addition, make
sure that you use the paragraph of the “Introduction” to map the
report. This mapping serves as a transition to the report's
middle.
Second Major Heading
Headings are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced. Use initial
capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial, because it
holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot three line
skips before the heading and two line skips after. At least one
paragraph should follow a heading before a subheading exists.
The typeface given here for the text portion of this report is
Times New Roman (on a Macintosh, Times would a comparable
choice). Book Antiqua would also be a professional choice,
especially for the single column format of a thesis. On a
Macintosh, comparable typefaces to Book Antiqua are New
Century Schoolbook and Palatino. In industry, the recommended
spacing for a report is single spacing.
First Subheading
Subheadings should be 12 points and boldfaced. Insert two line
skips before the sub-subheading and one line skip after. Use
initial capitals. Note that subheadings are typically listed in the
Table of Contents. Be conservative with subheadings in a
report. A report is often an argument and, as such, requires
series of uninterrupted paragraphs to state assertions and
present evidence for those assertions. For the length of report
that you have, avoid sub-subheadings, because they are often
unnecessary. Rather than having sub-subheadings, which would
be a third-level, have your paragraphs show the arrangement of
your ideas.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX..
Second Subheading
If you have one sub-subheading, you must have a second.
Otherwise, the first sub-subheading has nothing to be parallel
with. Do not allow a heading or subheading to stand as a widow
line at the bottom of a page. If the situation occurs, force a line
break before the heading or subheading.
Third Heading
Headings are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced. Use initial
capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial, because it
holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot three line
skips before the heading and two line skips after. At least one
paragraph should follow a heading before a subheading exists.
Another formatting consideration concerns the incorporation of
figures and tables. Shown in Figure 1 is a common format that
serves reports well. Note that the word figure is not
abbreviated. In a single column document, such an abbreviation
makes no sense. A period is the powerful piece of punctuation—
its primary use is to end sentences. Do not dilute its power by
having it do menial tasks such as saving three letters from a
word that is short to begin with.
Following standard convention, the formal introduction of
Figure 1 occurred in the text before the figure appeared. In the
introduction of an illustration, using pointers such as below or
on the next page is undesired. Your technical reader knows
where the illustration is supposed to be placed—after the
paragraph that introduces it or on the next page if not enough
space exists below the paragraph. Note that you should not
break paragraphs in a Microsoft Word document to insert an
illustration. To distinguish the figure caption from the text, you
should place the figure caption in a smaller typeface, as was
done in Figure 1. Recommended for the line spacing of the
caption is single spacing. For the caption, a nice touch is to
place the name in the bold sans serif of the headings and have
the caption’s text in the serif typeface of the chapter’s text. As
is common in reports, the caption begins with a phrase and is
followed by a sentence (or two) that explains unusual details.
Tables are presented in a different fashion. For instance, Table
1 presents an example. The heading for the table goes above and
is 11 points. The heading is a single phrase. If there are unusual
details, those are explained in footnotes beneath the table. Note
each line skip above and below that separates each illustration
and its caption (or heading) from the text.

Fourth Major Heading
Headings are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced. Use initial
capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial, because it
holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot three line
skips before the heading and two line skips after. At least one
paragraph should follow a heading before a subheading exists.

Appendix A:
Title of Appendix A
Titles of appendices are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced.
Use initial capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial,
because it holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot
three line skips before the heading and two line skips after.
Illustrations in this appendix are labeled Figure A-1, Figure A-
2, Table A-1, Table A-2, and so forth. Note that each appendix
begins on a new page. Also note that each appendix should be
introduced somewhere in the text portion of the report.
Appendix B:
Title of Appendix B
Titles of appendices are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced.
Use initial capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial,
because it holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot
three line skips before the heading and two line skips after.
Illustrations in this appendix are labeled Figure B-1, Figure B-
2, Table B-1, Table B-2, and so forth. Note that each appendix
begins on a new page. Also note that each appendix should be
introduced somewhere in the text portion of the report. Finally,
depending on your situation, you might have more or fewer
appendices.

�For this report, you are to use the formal report format. This
format can be used for long reports (more than 10 pages) and is
a good one for you to learn. A good instance would be the final
report of your senior design project.
�To hide comments, click on “Markup,” which is under
“View.”
�This page is the front cover —it has no page number. For this
class, you are free to just staple the report. However, for your
senior design project or for a professional situation, you should
consider using a spiral binding, which allows the report to lie
flat on a desk (avoid the vellum binding, which does not). For
the cover, use you should use either a cover stock or a
transparent piece of plastic so that this page is visible. The back
cover should be a cover stock.
�Replace all writing in blue with your own words. Note that the
title is left justified, which is the custom for publications in the
United States. If this report were for a European institution, a
centered headline would be appropriate.
�Cover art, which is common on formal reports. Choose an
image that either represents the work or orients the audience to
the topic of the report.
�This page is the title page—although the page number often
does not appear, it is roman numeral i.
�Insert the page number here. Because you are inserting all the
final page numbers, this page is usually the last page that you
work on.
�Insert the page number here. Because you are inserting all the
final page numbers, this page is usually the last page that you
work on.
�Depending on your situation, you might have more or fewer
headings.
�Insert the page number here. Because you are inserting all the
final page numbers, this page is usually the last page that you
work on.
�Insert your title here. Just listing Appendix A or Appendix B
does not help the reader to understand what those appendices
contain. Do not list any subheadings for the appendices, even if
subheadings exist. Note that you might more or fewer
appendices depending upon your situation.
�Please indent all paragraphs. Do not follow the primitive
format of not indenting paragraphs and skipping a full line
between paragraphs. Every major book and journal publisher in
the world indents paragraphs. The no-indent format arose in the
1960s when the first word processors were developed—these
word processors could not indent paragraphs and therefore
authors had to resort to line skips. The no-indent format distorts
the line spacing awarded to headings and, when equations and
illustrations are present, makes it unclear where paragraphs end
and where they begin. If you want to skip a little space—say 3
pts—between paragraphs, that is fine, but be consistent
throughout the report.
�Left-justified, as is the format in the United States. Note that
the spacing afforded to this heading is the same as the spacing
afforded to the appendices and the “Contents,” which is three
line skips before and two line skips afterwards.
�Given here are some common reference citations for ME 4006
reports. Also given are reference citations for reference listings
that appeared in this template.
�This page is the last page in the report. Following this page is
the back cover, which would be a cover stock.

Appendix A: Title of Appendix A Titles of appendices are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced. Use initial capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial, because it holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot three line skips before the heading and two line skips after. Illustrations in this appendix are labeled Figure A-1, Figure A- 2, Table A-1, Table A-2, and so forth. Note that each appendix begins on a new page. Also note that each appendix should be introduced somewhere in the text portion of the report. Appendix B: Title of Appendix B Titles of appendices are 14 points, flush left, and boldfaced. Use initial capitals. A good typeface for the heading is Arial, because it holds bold facing well. To preserve hierarchy, allot three line skips before the heading and two line skips after. Illustrations in this appendix are labeled Figure B-1, Figure B- 2, Table B-1, Table B-2, and so forth. Note that each appendix begins on a new page. Also note that each appendix should be introduced somewhere in the text portion of the report. Finally, depending on your situation, you might have more or fewer appendices. References Chyu, M.

Note that you might more or fewer appendices depending upon your situation. �Please indent all paragraphs. Do not follow the primitive format of not indenting paragraphs and skipping a full line between paragraphs. Every major book and journal publisher in the world indents paragraphs. The no-indent format arose in the 1960s when the first word processors were developed—these word processors could not indent paragraphs and therefore authors had to resort to line skips. The no-indent format distorts the line spacing awarded to headings and, when equations and illustrations are present, makes it unclear where paragraphs end and where they begin. If you want to skip a little space—say 3 pts—between paragraphs, that is fine, but be consistent throughout the report.
