The document outlines topics to be covered in a Dreamweaver training session including creating hyperlinks, tables, manipulating images, embedding videos and widgets, and understanding best practices for web design such as limiting excessive design elements, ensuring fast page loads, and using standard fonts and page widths. Potential pitfalls of poor web design are highlighted through examples of sites with issues like large text sizes, complex navigation, and layout problems.

20. Other Tips Always think about the users Fast load, users do not want to wait. A standard web page should not more then 60KB. It should take less then 15 seconds. Study HTML. Coding some times faster then drawing. Use standard fonts. Listen to the feedback.
21. Other Tips Do Not make page to wide. Users do not want to use horizontal scrolling. Do Not put long paragraph in page. Use PDF to let user read it off line. Do not use blinking text.
