Thanx to all of you who have replied Off-List concerning alternatives to
IsoView. I'm also looking for opinions/reviews from IsoView users.

 

Question for Tech Writers who double as Tech Illustrators:

A new project will require the TW department to provide technical QA and
light editing of interactive illustrations (wiring diagrams, schematics
etc).The writers will also be creating "pop-up" notes and Metadata for
the illustrations. The graphics folks are looking at using either Corel
or IsoDraw but the TW skill set is basically at the "Photoshop" level.
Can anyone tell me if one of these programs has a "less steep" learning
curve than the other?

 

Blessings,

Darren

I'd appreciate some opinions from     IETM and CBT writers.

 

My office is considering using Arobortext IsoView. Are there

alternatives that we should consider as well?
