STC Carolina: Free Mini-Conference on Online Help Trends
STC Carolina is hosting a free mini-conference this Saturday. Don't miss "Online Help Trends in the Triangle and Beyond," a day devoted to learning the latest in online help trends. Come share your own tips and tricks. Best of all, registration is FREE to all!
Scheduled presentations include the following:
- Open discussion to provide an overview of online help and to show samples of what different folks are currently doing.
- Ann-Marie Grissino of Keypoint Consultants will show the newest help authoring tool today, MadCap Flare. Flare is a help authoring tool that produces many types of help (including Flash-based help) and plays well with FrameMaker.
- Sheila Loring of Scriptorium Publishing Services will show how to create online help in FrameMaker using a cool DITA XML workflow.
- RJ Jacquez, Senior Technical Evangelist for FrameMaker and RoboHelp at Adobe Systems, will join us via an Acrobat Connect session to talk about the venerable RoboHelp and its latest incarnation, RoboHelp 6. Expect lots of excitement during the question and answer period.
