Wadeware’s considerable technical editing expertise is the result of a unique blend of writing, editing, and related communications skills. Our accomplished technical editing staff combines these skills with an understanding of technology and years of experience to help your organization communicate technical information accurately and effectively. And our technical editors are versatile as well; they can work with existing documents or help you envision, plan, and develop new materials.
Our technical editing staff is well-versed in many industry-standard tools for word processing, desktop publishing, and presentation. These tools include the Microsoft Office suite of applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio) as well as Adobe products (InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat). Our primary style reference is the Microsoft Manual of Style for Technical Publications, which is considered a standard in the industry, but our technical editors have also worked with other style guides and helped our clients develop peripheral style guides. We also work with a variety of hard-copy and electronic dictionaries, thesauruses, and other language tools.
In addition, Wadeware’s technical editing staff has significant experience with marketing communications materials. Our collective technical communications expertise can help you achieve the optimal balance between technical detail and readability for all of your organization’s technical materials. Whatever your requirements, Wadeware’s knowledgeable technical editors are ready to help you deliver the customized documents you need to the specialized audiences you’re trying to reach.
