Group, At a job interview yesterday (February 27), one of the folks I met with stated her hopes that besides the usual technical writing duties, she plans for a modernization of one of the company's web pages. Her comment was that "It's so 1980s."
While I've done online content here and there, I've not done really full-blown, overall web site design or redesigns. The staff person (a vice president) said that the current page was done using MadCap Flare. Due to the EXTREMELY restrictive policies at my previous employer (where I worked for nine and one-half years before the tech pubs function was outsourced), we weren't permitted to spend any money on upgrades to our software or learn new ones. Thus, I have no experience with MadCap Flare. So I ask about the learning curve; I'm already a 22-year user of FrameMaker, Acrobat Pro (version 9, an oldie) and other tools. So how similar are these two (FM and Flare) to each other? And if I spend a few hours a day using the trial version, any idea on my proficiency? I know this open-ended, but it's really new territory for me. Plus, I won't even know if I get the job for a few days or weeks. Just trying to plan ahead. Thanks all. -- Kenpo in Atlanta _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected]
