Hello everyone!
I am relatively new to the list, sorry if I am raising an old issue.
My customer (a big international company) doesn't tell me anything about the intended audience of the hardware and software user documentation I am writing. All I get is a specification and a few other supplementary documents (data sheets and the like). It's not always easy to figure out just how technically savvy the users are or may be. Any ideas how to deal with it?
Thanks a lot!
Yevgeny Borodkin
