Unfortunately, not all software producers duly
prepare the documentation. There are programmers,
who think that working at the documents is a
waste of time, because nobody needs them.

products have carefully written and well thought
out documentation.

Though it is believed that if a product is
intuitive and clear, there is no need to read the
manual, well-written user manuals considerably
increase chances of a program to be successful.

Manuals may be rarely utilized by the end-users,
but they are important for marketing purposes, as
customers usually judge about an application
based on its descriptions in the documents such
as user manuals.For example, Microsoft
Corporation always carefully prepares the user
manual for every version of their products, even
for well know ones.

User Manuals Should
  • give exhaustive information about the product,
    its functions and feature
  • give clear and understandable instructions on how
    to use the product both for technical and
    nontechnical people
  • be written in an expressive language
  • demonstrate advantages of the product.
