I needed some input on how to plan new and updated documentation. We are in the Semiconductor business, working on user guides, reference manuals, and silicon validation reports. If you feel that this discussion is off-topic, please feel free to send me an email with your suggestion: [email protected] Here is an estimate that I came across the STC website. Is this reasonable? Our documents are in Frame and Word. The final output is in PDF format. ********************************************************************
Baseline from the STC website: Writing new text 3 - 5 hours per page Revising existing text 1 - 3 hours per page Editing 6 - 8 pages per hour Production preparation 5 percent of all other activities Consider this preliminary estimate to represent the number of hours needed if you follow your “normal” development process and if the project proceeds without any major problems. ****************************************************************************** Thanks, Krishna _________________________________________________________________ Express your personality in color!
