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.
>This top manager I refer to wants our Technical Communication group to
>write our documentation in MS Word (which we use only with RoboHelp) and
>then give the files to the Web Technology group. Then the Web Technology
>group would convert the files to HTML and publish them on our intranet.
>He thinks this should be a two-step process (instead of one) and that
>the conversion to HTML and publishing on the intranet should be done
>AFTER we write our documents.
>I'd like to hear your responses.
I would ask him for his cost-benefit analysis. This is, after all,
the Age of Science.
