Principles for Organizing Print Material [Organizing Content #21] | I'd Rather Be Writing

Principles for Organizing Print Material [Organizing Content #21] | I'd Rather Be Writing: "Long printed manuals are becoming museum relics. If you’re delivering a 200 page printed manual for your software, expecting that users will read it cover to cover to learn the application, you’re kidding yourself. Reproducing �the entire online help in printed form for those one or two users who request a whole handbook does a disservice to the majority of users who prefer just a light print reading experience to get started. If your experience has been different from what I described above, please share your perspective with me."
