I don't do shortnames for styles, because others have to work on my files, so it would be unfair to them to have them guess what BUC or something is, and I have to think about what way I leave the files for when I'm no longer working here (I will be here, but not forever ) )

Ah yes, one of my roles at the company I'm at is to maintain the training documents for our freelancers… so all that stuff is documented. :-)

Freelancer quote that made me bang my head on my desk: “Oh, you and all your styles!” — said after I explained to them that to achieve a certain visual effect, I wanted them to format a paragraph with a paragraph style, and some words within it as character style. I spent more time fixing that book than it would have taken me to build it myself.
