Subject:ideas? tech spec for Japanese audience From:Kellie Delaney <SoftText -at- AOL -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 15 Aug 1995 13:28:37 -0400
I'm getting ready to expand/edit/DTP a technical specification to be reviewed
by a company's internal audience in Japan. Since I've never done this sort
of thing before, I wondered if anyone had suggested guidelines/suggested
reading for things like style, syntax, linguistic preferences. Any thoughts
appreciated - please reply to me personally; I'll compile and post results
from my query.
