3.11. Tables
Tables are to be numbered
sequentially using arabic numerals. Within the text, tables are identified as
"Table 1," "Table 2," etc. Table captions are printed, in upper- and lowercase
letters, above the table. Do not use boldface or italics. Do not end the caption
with a period. Footnotes to tables should be indicated through the use of
asterisks, daggers, or lowercase letters. If the presented data are derived from
another source, identify it in the first footnote.
Tables should be designed to
fit within the normal printing area of the page. Occasionally, a table may be
rotated ninety degrees to facilitate printing sideways on the page. In a few
circumstances, tables may span two facing pages.
