Test-Drive Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2 In Minutes, No Trial Download Required
According to Adobe, "With 6 major Adobe software applications in Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2, plus 10 other smaller programs, evaluating the entire Suite has been a challenge for our customers because of the total file size of the software. Today our customers have to either order a shipped trial DVD, or wait for several Gigabytes to download before getting their hands on the software.
"In an effort to provide a better trial experience to our customers, we have been working with Runaware, who specializes in hosting full versions of software in a virtual environment, delivered via the browser. This means that you can now get your hands on our entire Suite in literally minutes and without having to download the trial version of the software."

Scrolling Tables in Adobe RoboHelp
M Martin-Johnson, a 10-year veteran technical communicator, has come up with an interesting technique for creating fixed table headings in RoboHelp. According to Martin-Johnson, "If you're working on a [RoboHelp topic] that has a lot of data displayed in a table, you may want to ensure that the table headings are fixed and viewable on the screen as the reader scrolls down through the table.
"There is a simple way to do this: scrolling tables. Basically, you are placing a scrollbar on the area of the page that you want to be scrollable. This approach also allows you to display a lot of information in a small area of the screen."
