ISO/IEC 11581 applies to software products providing office applications such as document production, desktop
publishing, finance, and planning that present their functions via a graphical user interface.
ISO/IEC 11581 applies to software products for people who are familiar with office work but who are at present not
necessarily familiar with computer-based applications.
ISO/IEC 11581 is meant to be used by persons involved in the design, implementation, and evaluation of icons for
graphical user interfaces to computer-based office applications, and by procurers of systems that employ such
interfaces.
Other parts of ISO/IEC 11581 contain:
_ graphics of commonly used icons, and
_ descriptions of the functionality of the icons.
This part of ISO/IEC 11581-1 provides a framework for the development and design of icons and their application
on screens capable of displaying graphics as well as text. It contains:
_ general requirements and recommendations for icons;
_ global variations to the graphical representations of icons.
