5. When deciding whether to use a particular illustration in an electronic document, there are several factors to consider. One factor that may rule out the use of an illustration is if its lines are thin and light, indicating that it will reproduce poorly.

The illustration's lines are thin and light, indicating that it will reproduce poorly.

6. To calculate the percentage size of the new illustration in relation to the original document, you need to use a proportion scale. In this case, the original illustration is 6 picas wide and 8 picas high, while the available space in the document is 9 picas wide and 12 picas high. To calculate the percentage size, divide the dimensions of the new illustration by the dimensions of the original illustration, and multiply by 100. In this case, (9/6) * (12/8) * 100 = 150%. Therefore, the correct answer is B. 150 percent.
