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.
>To that end, does anybody care to suggest some basic books on layout and
design? For starters, I'd suggest "The Elements of Typographic Style," "The
Form of the Book," and "The Non-Designers' Design Book." Any others?<
_The PC is not a Typewriter_
_Editing by Design_ (very good, non-computer focussed book on how to use design
to support communicating the contents of the text)
