Information for software developers

Do any of the following sound familiar?

Your company has developed a software product and your marketing department says that there must be documentation for it but your company is too small to justify full-time authors.

You have already developed a new software product and its documentation but your customers say they can't understand it. Maybe this is because it was written by the development engineers, who believe in the product but find it difficult to take a user's viewpoint.

You have already developed a new software product and its documentation but it does not fully cover all aspects of the product and its use.

You have upgraded a successful software product but you do not have the time or resources to update the documentation.

You have a new software product but the programmers have written its on-line help and it does not come up to the standard you want.

You have a new software product but there's only one engineer who really understands it and he cannot communicate well, is about to leave your company, emigrate to Iceland and so on.
