How to Write for a Global Audience

In today's world, technical documentation must be designed for multiple audiences - both the users who read the text in translation, and those for whom English is a second language. By using Controlled English and authoring with an eye to translation, companies can make the entire process of product globalization faster, cheaper and less prone to errors.

This audio conference provides some basic guidelines on how to write for a global audience, enabling attendees to reduce the cost and improve the quality of translations, improve training and customer support, and protect their companies from litigation under the "failure to warn" principle.

How to Write for a Global Audience was presented by John Smart, President, with SMART Communications. For more details, or to purchase a download of this event, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com
