Manual Improvement

Idea #5: Page Reduction


Reduce pages and achieve cost reduction and user satisfaction?

Are you concerned about the cost-effectiveness of manuals?

Solve the problem of decreased user satisfaction with manuals and the burden of printing costs that occur with each revision.

Let's review the existing manual again.

The key to reducing pages is to review the table of contents and design of expression.



What are the two perspectives to reduce pages?

Creating a concise table of contents... Removing duplicate entries and consolidating similar content.
Designing with a good balance... Creating pages with varying amounts of information and consolidating less important information onto pages with more information to add variety to the layout.

The basics are simple.
It's all about writing.

You can turn long sentences into concise short sentences.

Current Status If the usage time has significantly decreased despite being properly charged, it is considered to be the end of its lifespan.
Rewrite Proposal If the usage time becomes short even after charging, it is considered to be the end of its lifespan.
Current Status The charger can also be used overseas.
Rewrite Proposal The charger can also be used overseas.

By translating to other languages such as English, it is possible to reduce costs due to the decrease in character count.
In addition, it can also lead to improved quality by preventing expression variations and avoiding mistranslations.
