Discussion
Consider the following statements about map lettering.
1. Type should not be set upside down anywhere on the sheet.
2. A settlement name is conventionally placed to the upper right of its symbol.
3. Lettering should always be horizontal regardless of the feature it names.
Answer: A
Correct answer: 1 and 2 only
Statements 1 and 2 are conventions of good practice: type is never set upside down, and a settlement name goes to the upper right of its symbol unless something is in the way. Statement 3 contradicts the previous item - linear features are named along their course precisely because that association is worth more than horizontality.
