Expected enhancement of the N III emission-line spectrum by the Bowen He II → O III → N III resonant photoexcitation process is computed using a six-configuration model. Preliminary comparisons with available solar and nebular observations indicate that the process may play only a small role, although photoexcitation quenching of the N III and O III far-infrared fine-structure lines is noted as a possible important mechanism. Some features are discussed in connection with the nebular emission at 1750 Å, which is suggested as an indicator of excitation class for planetary nebulae.
