How can I sum up in a few sentences the differences
between training guides and the general user guides?
I thought something like - Training guides include
less ref info (explaining buttons and functions etc.,
since you're likely to include that verbally in the
class) and more step by step with specific examples.
Regular user guides have more ref info and the step by
step tasks may or may not be real examples.
I am writing job descriptions and trying to find lines
of demarcation.
Thanks
Mario
PS Many thanks to all for the answers to the
grammar/usage questions.
