Technical Publishing
Consulting
In technical publishing consulting projects, Claro Systems listens very carefully to your requirements and asks many questions before recommending any action. We find that it is critical to gain an in-depth understanding of your requirements so we can find the best solution for you. Consulting projects of significant size normally require one or more on-site visits, while smaller projects may be handled over the phone and the Internet.
I can help your organization design not only the style of your technical and business-critical publications but also the complete system to produce them in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. I can set up your publishing environment to produce it all, such as a press-ready PDF file to be sent to a print shop, a coordinated CD-ROM or DVD-ROM containing an exact copy (or screen-optimized version) of your printed material, or a hypertext version of your material browsable on your internal network or the public World Wide Web.
Production
In addition to consulting, Claro Systems has a proven track record as a contractor to produce any or all of your publications, on schedule and on budget. Staffing levels are flexible, and medium-sized projects with tight deadlines pose no problem. Depending on project size and timeframe, I draw as needed on a skilled group of publishing professionals (editors, graphic artists, technical illustrators, proofreaders, indexers, and compositors) who apply their talents to your project.
