Seo, if by “droid” you mean Android telephone or tablet you may have a point there. This WP blog is designed for PCs & regular Mac machines. We’ll look into it. Perhaps it’s time to also have a mobile version. Thanks for the feedback. Ugur

Bela, you’re welcomed to take the course but it’s not about technical translation. You’ll learn the basics of technical writing in TW101 and even more editing techniques in the Technical Editing course. However, these courses do not address the issue of translating technical documents from English to Japanese and vice-versa. Regards, Ugur

Bruce, I don’t think you can do that. The “Split Window” feature is not persistent between file sessions.

How do you save the file so the split remains when the file is reopened?

Comment on How to Combine Multiple MS Word 2010 Documents in a Master Document by admin

Gautam, a Word Master Document is nothing but a collection of ordered links pointing at individual files. By importing all the files into the same master document and organizing all the links under the same outline structure you can in effect create a “super master document.” But you cannot simply “add” two master documents together and create a single “Word super master document.”

Rekha, thanks for writing. I’m trying to understand your specific situation. You’re a “lone writer” but you work for a “start-up company” (by telecommuting perhaps), is that it? For peer review you need to find another technical writer, if not in the same company then perhaps a writer friend that you can trust; someone whose judgement and professional background you respect. But if you can’t find any such person, then you can ask a SME (Subject Matter Expert) or a developer to have a look at what you’ve written as well. But that would be more like a regular content review than a “peer review”. Those two kinds of review overlap to a certain extent but they’re not the same. Grammar, expression, and formatting errors, for example, can be detected much better by your writer peers than SMEs or engineers.
