We live in a highly visual world and thanks to popular sites like YouTube, Flickr, MySpace and FaceBook, the Internet has forever changed the expectations of consumers and how they digest information. The first wave of children to grow up with the web, sometimes called the “Connected Generation,” is now reaching adulthood and along the way have enjoyed the benefits of dynamic, interactive information and undoubtedly will never be satisfied with anything else.
This new revolution is disruptive for most industries, including Technical Communication and Instructional Design. With any change, though, comes opportunities to rethink about how to take advantage of rich media in documentation. When adding rich media, we can also incorporate new ways of delivering truly useful and interactive technical documentation in multiple languages and formats. In keeping pace with this new revolution, find out how Adobe and the new Adobe Technical Communication Suite is changing the industry landscape by providing new ways and new deliverables (e.g. Adobe AIR) for authoring and publishing the next generation of technical and instructional design documents.
