Subject:RE: Technical editing vs. technical writing? From:"LeVie, Donald S" <donald -dot- s -dot- levie -at- intel -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 13 Aug 2002 12:19:43 -0700
If you've read Judith Tarutz's book, Technical Editing, it's the technical
writers that (ideally) have detailed product knowledge of a few products
within a product family; it's the technical editor that has general
knowledge of all the products in the family. But I've never worked in an
organization that had a separate "technical editor" function...like most of
us, I've had to wear both hats.
