* What I mean is that a technical paper will have a different type of
complexity from let's say a Shakespearean play, because the former will
have technical jargon, while the latter will have really high level*


* vocabulary.*Good point. But, I am thinking a 7th grade might find both of
them complex to understand - one because of technical jargon and other
because of high level vocabulary?

If it helps, I am looking at a set of user manuals of various products. I
am trying to determine which of those user manuals are easier to read and
which are more complex in comparison.
