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.
Thanks to all the folks (way too many to mention individually) who wrote
with suggestions for a DTP for doing the PTA newsletter.
Here's a summary, in order of votes:
Microsoft Publisher (the most votes by far)
Page Plus by Serif
PageMaker
WordPerfect 7
Claris Works
I need to do some more research to see whether the new editors have Macs or
PCs (my guess is Macs--very smart move by those Apple folks a couple of
years ago, donating all those Macs to schools), but I appreciate all the
suggestions.
