Adobe News of the Month



We launched a digital campaign on http://www.dowriteright.com for technical
writers who want a more powerful authoring tool than Word.



There are also a lot of conversations on social platforms (Facebook,
LinkedIn and Twitter) on the same subject – search for #WriteRight to join
the conversation!



*News of the Month*



The key event of May was the Annual STC Summit in Atlanta. Adobe was not
only a Platinum Sponsor of the event, but hosted an "Adobe Day" (see item
under blogs) and had 3 featured speaker presentations including Kapil
Verma, Vikram Verma and Maxwell Hoffmann. Our blog, "Key highlights of
#AdobeDay at #STC13 Summit in Atlanta" http://adobe.ly/12CJvt0 has links to
all of the presentations. A highlight was Adobe Day's keynote presentation
by FrameMaker's inventor, Charles Corfield, who is the only person we know
who also has his own Wikipedia page and has climbed Mount Everest.



The Adobe booth at STC Summit had a raffle for a highly coveted "Mad Men"
1964 portable typewriter. Charles Corfield was present most of the first
day, and had dozens of one-on-one conversations with existing and potential
FrameMaker users. The booth featured several RoboHelp and FrameMaker demos
by special guests, and two book signings.
