We've provided reference below to illustrate how we take the measurements.

Axle Type - for square tapers, the ISO introduced a standard for European makers in the early 90s, JIS then did the same in Asia. Before then it was not so simple, and although there is a degree of interchangeability, the best way to make sure you have the right axle is to stick to the same brand from the same era, ideally the proprietary model.

Axle Length (D) - your crankset dictates the axle length you need and the recommendation should be used to avoid issues with chainline. If you're replacing an axle that works perfectly then this can be matched, otherwise you'll need to check the manufacturers spec, a good resource for older bikes is Velobase.

Centre (B) - measured from the outside of the 'shoulders' of the bearing races, as seen in the diagram.

Drive Side (C) - the right side (with any logos etc on the axle facing you), your right crank and chainrings will mount to this side.

Non-Drive Side (A) - the left side, where the left crank arm will be mounted.

Shell Width - the width of the bottom bracket shell the axle was designed to fit, measured at its widest point.
