You can always save the files, or the suspect files, out as MIF and then compare them using a text editor; i.e., Notepad++ or TextPad. That will display any differences. Dave Spreadbury On Friday, April 24, 2015 2:00 PM, Stuart Rogers wrote: On 2015-Apr-24 2:06 PM, Syed Zaeem Ho

Experience won't be an issue; quality may be. We'd hired technical writers in Pune as far back as 2001. We don't have writers there anymore. We found people who had a good attitude and were interested in our software, but their writing wasn't "clean." Grammar was a real issue. I was surprised, beca

I would give serious thought to Acrolinx, if you're facing consistency issue as your content scales up and if you're going to bring in multiple writers. It can also help other casual content authors (e.g., developer's and tester's design and use case docs; marcomm) or give you a fast-editing path t

Good luck! I believe your best bet would be to find an American tech writer living in Pune, or hire someone in Boston. Plenty of companies parse out tech writing jobs to off-site writers. If you're concerned about quality, imo, your US-based team needs to do at least a copy edit! On Thur
