Scope

This part of GB/T 16903 specifies the test methods for the comprehension of graphic symbols, including: - the method used when testing the accuracy of the graphic symbol scheme to convey the expected information; - the method used when testing the most understandable graphic symbol scheme Methods. The purpose of preparing this section is to ensure that graphic symbols and graphic signs are easy to understand, and to develop graphic symbols that can be correctly understood by users without supplementary text (ie explanatory text). If the developed graphic symbols cannot meet this requirement, the graphic symbols may need to be used together with supplementary text (supplementary text explains the meaning of the graphic symbols in the language of potential users).
