Product Manuals

In some cases, clients prefer the more familiar Microsoft Word format over other software applications such as Adobe FrameMaker or PageMaker. When we deliver documents written in Word, we also include an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of the document. The PDF file has the advantage of smaller size, consistent appearance, and transmits easily over the Web.

Here are two samples of equipment manuals written in Word and Sample Manualsdistributed as PDF files. Notice how Acrobat helps users navigate by adding bookmarks and preserving the original in-document Table of Contents and cross-reference links.

Visit www.adobe.com for a free copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Intranets

Internal Web sites are a great way to publish corporate standards, employee handbooks, corporate policies, newsletters, and general shared information. They provide a fast, cost saving alternative to printing and distributing internal documents.

We created an intranet site to assist users with their new IntranetParametric Technology Corporation 3D CAD system. The site augments the Pro/ENGINEER online help feature. A Standards Committee (made up of Pro/ENGINEER users) develops and publishes company specific standards, procedures, and best practices on the site. Now users can get help with modeling and drawing standards while they are working.

Graphics

Line art can be time consuming when creating new documents. To Line Artspeed-up the process and reduce costs, we can produce line art from your existing CAD drawings using .dxf, .dwg, or IGES files. Here are two examples originally created in AutoCAD and Pro/ENGINEER (try printing them from Acrobat Reader).
