Abstract:
Technical communicators around the world are turning to the World Wide Web us their primary delivery agent for
on-line documentation. The transition from older forms of
on-line documentation to HTML-based documents pre -
sents new challenges in every phase of the documentation
process: document creation, layout, access, and especially
hypermedia capability The constant development of new
web tools presents an even greater challenge for an organization
seeking to stay abreast of technology with an ever
decreasing budget. This panel will outline the basic steps
in migrating to the web while focusing on one
organization’s solution to meeting the challenges of restructuring
its on-line documentation for web migration.
