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.
Milan - It's about work flow. I'm busy most of the time. I prefer to
use one tool as much as possible rather than flipping through
tools...1 to write, 1 to layout, etc. I have done it, I will do it
again. But I'm a pretty efficient guy at work who likes keeping his
work weeks to 40 hours.
Bill - Whereas the PagerMaker bar is decent, it's no wordprocessing
toolbar. Where is the "Paste Special" option? That alone would make me
VERY happy. I could make a list, but honestly, is InDesign meant to be
a word processor? Is that the intent of it's code?
No. 'nuff said. You can bend it all you want, it's just not That Kind
of Tool...yet. I use it every day. I like it, but I don't like it for
300 page manuals.
