Mastering Formatting Solutions e-Workshop

Formatting Solutions (FS) Pro is a software application that helps writers apply the Information Mapping methodology to create documents that are clear, easy to navigate, and consistent in style and presentation. By automating many of the structural and design decisions, FS Pro leaves writers free to focus on the document content and their readers' needs for information.

While the basic functions of the software are easy to learn, writers can benefit from coaching on some of its more sophisticated capabilities in this e-workshop.
