RE: Define technical communicator's job

["Lauren" <lauren -at- writeco -dot- net>]

Wonderful!  But according to that definition, a graphic illustrator and a
technical writer are both technical communicators, although the two jobs are
not interchangeable.  So the title Technical Communicator would not replace
any other title.  Also, your description of a technical communicator does
not include all roles found in technical communication.
