User Manuals That Don't Suck | Rewrite + Redesign | Technical Writer
If your manual reads like a translation or a spec sheet, I rewrite it into a clean, layout-ready user guide. I create user manuals, instruction guides, and quick start guides for physical products. Clear steps. Consistent terminology. Built from your source materials. I help product brands turn supplier text and rough drafts into clear instructions customers can actually follow — setup, use, cleaning, and troubleshooting — without inventing features or changing functions. How I work • Intake: You send your current manual or supplier text, product photos (labels and buttons matter), and any specs or packaging text. • Manual audit: I flag unclear steps, contradictions, missing info, and safety wording that needs cleanup. • Terminology lock: I standardise names for parts, buttons, modes, and indicators. Printed labels stay exactly as printed. • Rewrite for real users: Clear sections, numbered steps, consistent warnings/notes, and tables where they help (troubleshooting, cleaning, specs). • Final QA: Consistency check (terms/labels/units) + safety coverage check + “matches source” check. • Delivery: Layout-ready in Word or Google Docs (ODF available), ready for layout or translation. • Translation (optional add-on): For an additional fee, I can provide AI-assisted translations. I only speak English, so a fluent speaker must review and approve the translated text before it’s published. What you receive • Layout-ready manual text (structured and consistent) • Terminology list (concept → approved term) • Short list of open questions only when information is genuinely missing or unclear
