OT: Resources for Alert Standards

[Jerilynne Knight]

Hi all

I'm looking for standards on the proper use of terms like "Notes",
"Cautions", "Warnings", "Tips", etc. in software documentation. When I
search, I'm finding ANSI and IEEE standards that are available for purchase.
At this point, I don't really want to purchase the entire standard. I simply
want to know the proper convention for using these terms. I *know* I had
this information at one time and can't seem to find it in my files!

Anyone have any documentation or recommendations?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sincerely
