This assignment involved the revision of an article with a focus on editing, chunking, and layering to increase readability. The original article had few pictures and was very text-heavy. The revisions were done by analyzing and utilizing other examples of articles with good readability to edit the chosen article by adding images, pull-out quotes, and section breaks.

This is the final revision of a company's On-Boarding Packet for new employees. It includes changes to the formatting of the document that improve the readability and cohesiveness of the content. To achieve a cleaner, more visually appealing document, some copyediting of the document was required. I printed out the original document and used copy-marking throughout, then applied my edits and created a final PDF version of the document.
