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 haven't seen VP 7.0 myself yet, but several members of the local user
group saw it at the Corel road show in San Diego and were very impressed.
They said it's getting closer and closer to Corel DRAW, using the same type
of pull-down menus. In fact, one of it's features is that you can actually
manipulate DRAW graphics right from within VP, without having to actually
open DRAW, as with the older OLE-type tool. It does allow conversion to
HTML, and other formats, but, not having seen it myself, I can't say how.
You might check Corel's web site (http://www.corel.com) to see if there's
going to be a Road Show near you -- they're usually free and Corel gives
away some pretty cool door prizes and goodie bags.
