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.
I've been lurking on this list for about a while now. It's finally time to
take the plunge. ;-)
I'm planning for the next release of our documentation set. We print our
user's manual in 4 colors. This is very expensive: about $20 per book. For
our next release, we plan to put the book in a 3-ring binder instead of
using other types of binding methods. The idea here is to update specific
pages or chapters instead of reprinting the entire manual. Have any of you
used this method of binding/updating for your doc. sets? What's your
experience? Do users insert the new pages or do the pages get lost?
Please respond directly to me. My email address is Della_Stein -at- ins -dot- com -dot-
Thanks in advanced for your feedback.
