TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
That is a perfectly fine process. Unfortunately, that would work very well
in my situation, because I'm editing Help written by a group in France. So
I'd like some method to edit online and send back to the authors.
I was thinking of editing HTML files in MS Word using Track Changes, so the
authors could see my edits and then make the necessary changes via RH or
some tool.

Subject: RE: Online Help Editors
I blame this workflow on my Minor in Secondary Education.
I print it, use a non-red ink pen, and take it to the person to show
them my suggestions. Having a piece of paper is easier, for me, than to
have us look at it online.
