+\chapter{Introduction}
+\pagenumbering{arabic}
+
+This document has a glossary in a footnote\footnote{\printglossaries}.
+
+A \gls{glossarylist} (definition~\glsrefentry{glossarylist}) is a
+very useful addition to any technical document, although a
+\gls{glossarycol} (definition~\glsrefentry{glossarycol}) can also
+simply be a collection of glosses, which is another thing entirely.
+Some documents have multiple \glspl{glossarylist}.
+
+Once you have run your document through \LaTeX, you
+will then need to run the \texttt{.glo} file through
+\texttt{makeindex}. You will need to set the output
+file so that it creates a \texttt{.gls} file instead
+of an \texttt{.ind} file, and change the name of
+the log file so that it doesn't overwrite the index
+log file (if you have an index for your document).
+Rather than having to remember all the command line
+switches, you can call the \gls{Perl} script
+\texttt{makeglossaries} which provides a convenient
+wrapper.
+
+If a comma appears within the name or description, grouping
+must be used, e.g.\ in the description of \gls{pagelist}.
+
+\chapter{Plurals and Paragraphs}
+
+Plurals are assumed to have the letter s appended, but if this is
+not the case, as in \glspl{mtrx}, then you need to specify the
+plural when you define the entry. If a term may have multiple
+plurals (for example \glspl{cow}/\glslink{cow}{kine}) then
+define the entry with the plural form most likely to be used and
+explicitly specify the alternative form using \verb|\glslink|.
+\Glspl{seal} and \glspl{sealion} have regular plural forms.
+
+\Gls{bravo} is a homograph, but the plural forms are spelt
+differently. The plural of \gls{bravo1}, a cry of approval
+(definition~\glsrefentry{bravo1}), is \glspl{bravo1}, whereas the
+plural of \gls{bravo2}, a hired ruffian or killer
+(definition~\glsrefentry{bravo2}), is \glspl{bravo2}.
+
+\Glspl{par} can cause a problem in commands, so care is needed
+when having a paragraph break in a \gls{glossarylist} entry.
+
+\chapter{Ordering}
+
+There are two types of ordering: word ordering (which places
+``\gls{sealion}'' before ``\gls{seal}'') and letter ordering
+(which places ``\gls{seal}'' before ``\gls{sealion}'').
