Traditional technical documentation:
With the term 'traditional' we mean the usual documentation on paper. To develop this kind of information we need to ask a number of apparently obvious questions: Who will receive the information? Should the information be transferred using text or can it (better) be done in a different way, for example with illustrations? But also questions such as: How should the person receiving the information be addressed? Which transfer medium is the most suitable one?

Our team of documentation specialists always comes up with customized solutions for all your documentation questions. The documentation is prepared in full compliance with the applicable CE Directives. It can be supplied in many different forms, such as a book, on CD or as a PDF file.

Digital Technical Documentation:
New media such as internet have matured, and as a result technical documentation is increasingly provided and used in digital form. This documentation is stored on central servers and can be consulted via internet. This way the available information can always be updated quickly and efficiently. Just think about maintenance manuals or installation instructions.

Interactive:
One of the biggest benefits of digital documentation is the possibility to make documents interactive and to navigate through them graphically. Interactive means that there is interaction between the user of the information and the information itself. This can have big advantages when it comes to solving problems. Documentation with a graphical navigation feature "points" more or less in the right direction.
