Going global? Many of the problems encountered during the globalization process can be traced back to the earliest stages of developing product documentation. The good news is most of these problems can be avoided by following a few basic rules.
John Smart has spent over two decades helping companies market to 218 countries. In this presentation, he will describe the 21 most common problems encountered in writing for a global audience, identifying each type of error, describing the problem and showing how to make corrections. The presentation will use real-life examples to highlight potential cultural problems, including inappropriate number and color references, and the confusing use of dates and numbers. Attendees will be able to put the conference material to immediate use in improving their technical literature.
