Jim Royal's "Vectors and Bitmaps" is for people who work with graphics from time to time, and find themselves without the breathing space in their jobs to learn the fundamentals.
Many technical writers find themselves following procedures (often written in the dim prehistory of their organizations) blindly, and wish they could stop and ask: "Could someone please tell me why I'm doing this?" This seminar is for them.
Vectors and Bitmaps covers the ground-level differences between graphics formats, so decisions about file storage can be made intelligently. The seminar outlines the things not to do when designing a document template. It describes how to build layered graphics with manageability in mind. And a great deal more.
Jim lives and works in Montreal, Canada. The seminar is usually presented through the Montreal Chapter of the Society for Technical Communication (STC). If you are interested in inviting Jim to present the seminar in your locality, you can contact him directly.
Pricing for the seminar is set by the STC. If you wish a presentation for your own organization, please contact Jim directly.
